Young Ladies Club

Young Ladies Club aims to raise aspirations in disadvantaged young women to achieve their education and career potential by providing mentoring, confidence building activities and career workshops from positive role models.

We provide a range of programmes which include; 

Mentoring Programme

Young Ladies Club partners with schools to support young women aged 12-15 who are referred to us for the following reasons:

1. Low socio economic background
2. Low attainment
3. Lack of role models
4. Challenging behaviour/engagement
5. Low confidence/ self esteem

We deliver our mentoring programmes weekly after school for two hours during term time. Young women are partnered with a mentor under the supervision of a project leader.

The two hour mentoring sessions cover self-esteem and confidence building activities in addition to academic skills.

Our programmes take place in secondary schools and mentors are with the students throughout the mentoring session.
