My Future, My Success Mentoring
My Future, My Success Mentoring is a bespoke, place-based Mentoring, Coaching and Engagement Programme developed for Highland young people as part of My Future My Success (MFMS) programme.
The programme provides support for young people across the local authority, bringing employers, partners, and education together in a professional, efficient, accessible, and mutually beneficial community.
The programme aims to ensure more of our young people in Highland have the skills and knowledge to enable them to achieve a positive and sustained destination beyond school as well as having a better insight into the opportunities that are available to them locally.
With a team of Development Officers across Highland communities, we offer unrivalled support to mentors, ensuring they are equipped to support our young people whilst often developing new skills themselves.
Why you should mentor
Currently, Highland sit below the National (Scotland) percentage for school leavers entering a positive destination. For some of our young people with barriers and vulnerabilities, this is particularly challenging.
Young people, supported by a mentor, increase the likelihood of achieving and sustaining positive destinations through high-quality conversations and widening their horizons.
