Mentoring Matters to West Dunbartonshire
Why Mentoring Matters
MCR Pathways was first founded in 2007 and in 2018 it began expanding across Scotland. Its Young Dunbartonshire Talent (YDT) programme first launched in 2019, helping young people in the region to find, grow and use their talent.
Our volunteer mentors spend one hour a week listening to and encouraging their young person. The only qualification you need to be a mentor is the desire to help. Young people are matched with a mentor based on their personalities, interests and career aspirations. All young people are different and have different needs, so it’s important that our mentors come from all walks of life.
Role models make a life-changing difference to young people. Additionally, mentoring has been shown to make a powerful and positive impact on those who give their time and support.
