Mentor Link is a children’s charity providing one to one mentoring and therapeutic support to children in schools facing social or emotional issues. The aim of the charity is to provide regular one to one support from a professionally recruited and trained mentor, to improve self-esteem and engagement in learning. In addition, we work in partnership with two Educational Psychologists to deliver an EBSA project which is to support children back into learning after periods of absence. Formed in 2002 the charity operates across the Midlands.
