Our mentoring service provides personalised support for young people who may be facing challenges in their lives. Through one-to-one mentoring, family support, and targeted interventions, we help young people build confidence, develop resilience, and work towards positive outcomes.
Sometimes we all need extra support and someone to talk to.
Positive Futures provides tailored mentoring and targeted intervention services for young people who may be experiencing challenges at home, in education, or within their wider community. Our team works alongside young people to build trusted relationships, improve wellbeing, and help them achieve their goals.
Every young person’s journey is different, which is why our support is personalised to their individual needs and circumstances.
Working directly with young people to build confidence, resilience, emotional wellbeing, and positive decision-making skills.
Supporting families to address challenges together and strengthen relationships within the home environment.
Providing specialist support for young people facing complex challenges, helping them overcome barriers and access positive opportunities.
Our mentoring team regularly supports young people and families with:
In addition to 1-2-1 sessions, dozens of meetings are also attended with / and on behalf of families including EHAT’s, CINS, TAF’s, CPC’s etc.
Referrals to the FSS are only accepted via the Positive Futures Team, i.e., we are working with the young person and it becomes apparent the family need support. The collaborative approach of the FSS engages parents/carers as experts of their own children; being those closest and most trusted. Our aim is to provide support to families on a wide variety of issues. We work closely with schools, local authority services, youth organisations and a variety of agencies to intercept and & facilitate change before risk factors increase.
Some of the challenges families approach us with include:
Young people can be referred by schools, professionals, partner agencies, or through local referral pathways where appropriate.
Our mentoring service supports young people who may benefit from additional guidance, targeted intervention, or family support.
A member of the Positive Futures team will review the referral and make contact to discuss next steps and assess the most appropriate support.
Support is tailored to the needs of the young person and family and may vary depending on circumstances and agreed outcomes.
We work with young people to set goals, monitor progress, and evaluate outcomes throughout their journey with Positive Futures.
