Two of a kind
Two of a Kind is an Action for Children project which
recruits and supports mentors who have personal experience of the
care system.
The volunteer mentors guide, advise, listen to and befriend
young people who are currently still in care, sharing their
experiences of the system, as well as trying new activities and
spending quality time together.
Thinking of becoming a mentor?
Making a positive difference to the life of a vulnerable child
or young person is an amazing feeling, but here's five more great
reasons to mentor:
- you'll make new friends and have unforgettable experiences
- you'll receive full and ongoing training, and could gain
accreditation which might help your future career
- you'll be supported by regular meetings with your volunteer
coordinator
- Action for Children will cover all your expenses
- mentoring can easily be arranged to fit in with your other
commitments, such as work, studying or family
