Join Us In Making A Difference: Mentor With Cherished

At Cherished, we support children through our trauma-informed and attachment-focused mentoring approach, and provide foundations for children to feel heard and understood.

Cherished is our service to support girls, delivered by female mentors, and Roar is our service to support boys, delivered by male mentors.

The difference you’ll make

By mentoring with us, you will support a child on a 1:1 basis, either in the Connection Rooms at our Cherished Connection Hub, or in a school setting. You will provide a non-judgemental, listening ear, and plan mentoring sessions to meet the unique needs and interests of your mentee.
