Mentoring: Please see my ‘tool kit’ for things I’ve experienced and may be able to support you with.

Unless stated all work is £35/hour. The exception is if booking multiple hours on the same day for an under 18. This starts at £20/hour from 2nd hour, depending on requirements, to be agreed with parent/carer.

Free or subsidised sessions: Update 26/9/25. Thanks to generous supporters, I have been able to offer some free or subsidised sessions, and some have now been used. I currently have:

3 free sessions available for youth workers/youth pastors.

If you would prefer to pay what you can rather than have free sessions, I am happy to spread the equivalent amount over a longer period of time. Please contact me to discuss.

*Free/subsidised sessions for under 18s can only be commissioned by the young person or their parent/carer. Please email hopementoringuk@gmail.com for more info.

In person meetings may incur additional travel costs (see travel costs). However thanks to supporters, I can subsidise this by £10 per session.
