Information for mentors

To take part as a mentor, you would need to be identified as their preferred mentor by a young woman who is involved in the project. You would also need to be aged 18 years or over.

The Looking Forward Project involves:

• Meeting with the researcher, the time and location of these meetings will be flexible
• If you are happy to, we’ll ask you to sign a consent form
• We’ll then ask you to answer some brief questions about your hope and wellbeing
• We’ll provide you with information, training and guidance resources to understand how to support the young woman as their mentor
• Then you’ll be invited to answer some more questions about your hope, wellbeing and mentor experience about 16 weeks later
• You might also be invited to take part in an interview to talk about your experiences of the project in a bit more detail
