MENTORING AT THE WICKERS

Why We Do This

Through mentorship, we are able to fulfil our mission of empowering individuals who may be facing challenges, by providing them with guidance, support and knowledge. We aim to address the lack of access to valuable support networks in vulnerable communities, by creating programmes, and building partnerships with educational institutions that allow us to offer our services to young people of all backgrounds.

MENTORING AT THE WICKERS

Our Impact

As of January 2023, we have provided 1-1 and group mentoring sessions in 12 schools within East London. By building relationships with the young people in a safe and secure environment, we are then able to offer external support to them, through participation in our extra-curricular activities after school and our holiday programmes. Through providing a wide range of programmes and activities, we are able to reach 500+ young people on a weekly basis.

"It has been an absolute pleasure to see the work you are doing with the young people of Hackney. The range of activities and experiences is fantastic."

I had a look at the Wickers Charity and can see the great work that you are doing in London to help young people."
