"First and foremost, I would like to emphasise how important mentoring young people is. It is not just a job; mentoring is more than that. Mentors need to have empathy, self-respect, integrity, morality and so much more. Young people, and their families who we are asked to support can have very challenging behaviour and some are very vulnerable and traumatised. The reason for writing this is that I want people to understand that we potentially have the future of young people’s lives in our hands and that is a big responsibility but also an amazing opportunity."
