Businesses and Volunteers

The Leading Change programme provides opportunities for employers and volunteers to seek the views of young people on some of today’s key challenges and gives them the chance to be part of the solutions.

We ask Mentors to spend about 1 hour a week supporting the young people over a 12-week period (dates and times are agreed with individual schools and mentors).

If you would like to enquire about being part of Leading Change, please contact Nicola.Woolley@cforlp.org.uk
