Peer mentoring is traditionally a one-to-one non-judgemental relationship in which an individual (mentor) voluntarily gives time to support and encourage another (mentee). Peer mentors provide advice and guidance for those who require their support.

It is a great way to explore the issues you can’t easily discuss with colleagues, to reflect on difficult decisions and to get a different perspective. As well as offering one-to-one support, we can build on existing networks and link systems with similar challenges or experiences.

What impact can mentoring have?

• Improve self-esteem and confidence.
• Develop communication skills and problem-solving skills.
• Provide a space away from your team to discuss current challenges.
