Buddy Programme

Our former Peer Education Programme has had an overhaul after speaking to our young people and taking on board their ideas we have now revamped this to a Buddy Mentor Programme. Within this programme we will be covering Addictions which includes Alcohol, Drugs and Tobacco we have now added Vaping and the use of Electronic Cigarettes and Gambling. Emotional Health and Wellbeing alongside Bereavement, Loss and Suicide are the newer elements of our Buddy Mentor Programme. We will be raising awareness of these topics with transitions being a theme running through them all. Our Buddy Mentor Programme is open to all age groups to undertake the training or to become beneficiaries. Anyone can volunteer within the programme to become a mentor, over 16's must complete a PVG.
