Our Impact

At Flourish Mentors, we believe real change begins when young women are supported and empowered to Believe.Belong.Become.

By nurturing self-awareness, building a strong community of belonging, and fostering confidence and resilience, we equip young women with the tools they need to strengthen their mental health and wellbeing.

Through our mentoring and co-created workshops, we are proud to make a lasting difference—helping young women not only navigate challenges, but truly flourish.

Mentee Testimonials

"My mentor was amazing! It was refreshing to speak to somebody who could relate to similar life experiences. This helped me see how other people can work through it and emerge through it, as well as helping validate what I was going through. They were kind & polite and never approached any topics that I wasn’t ready to speak about yet. They helped me explore new local areas that I otherwise wouldn’t have known about; it also helped me by giving me another reason to leave the house when I felt isolated & alone. They helped me develop practical skills that I could apply to my day to day life as well as helping plan into the future."

“I had a great experience with Flourish mentors, they assigned me with a mentor who really understood me and how I was feeling. I found the experience extremely valuable and would recommend it.”

"I’ve been asked to give a few words about my experience with my mentor, and all I can say is it’s been absolutely amazing. She’s been very attentive, understanding, and gives amazing advice. She’s helped me with friendship issues, organising my life better, and is just very encouraging in general. I’m very glad to have her guidance in my life and think we’ve formed a great relationship so far. She’s definitely been a big help and I always look forward to our meetings."

"Flourish has been really helpful for me and my mentor has been an amazing source of information and place for me to go with any issues. It’s very nice to know that I have support and the advice I get is always useful and a source of comfort. It was really easy to get involved with the program."

"My experience so far with flourish mentors has been amazing. From the first introductory meeting I had with my mentor to every meeting since with my amazing mentor! I can definitely see changes from accessing mentoring, it has made me more confident and it has made me realise it's okay to not be okay. I would definitely recommend it to people my age who are thinking of doing it as it is definitely worth it! My mentor is great, she recently supported me at my GP appointment and she even took me Christmas shopping! I think Flourish is an amazing charity from the volunteers through to the work that they do!"

"Flourish is such a unique organisation. It helped me a lot knowing someone was always there for me when I needed it."

Mentor Testimonials

"What an amazing concept. It is just so valuable to the girls to have this safe space available to them for self-development."

" Incredibly well thought through - the relationship matching between the mentor and mentee is excellent and the support between mentors and sense of belonging to a dynamic and worthwhile social enterprise is rewarding. "

" I feel very supported and am looking forward to putting into practice the skills and expertise I have been provided with so far. I feel like there are lots of experienced mentors who I can contact for support if needed. "

" Three words?
Rewarding;
Proud (of her);
Stimulating (my learning) "

" It is a fantastic charity and I am so happy to be a part of it."

Supporters/Partners

"Flourish mentors came forward… I am always proud to introduce a young carer to Flourish Mentors. Their volunteer mentors have significantly impacted these young women's lives. One young woman recently said, "The best part of being part of young carers is meeting my Flourish mentor. She boosts my confidence and encourages me to try new things. She's even helping me with my CV. I'm so lucky to have her in my life.” Without Flourish mentors, our support wouldn't be as comprehensive. I feel honoured to work with Frederique and Cathy to continue this vital support for deserving young women"

“I’m blessed to have a pretty good relationship with my daughter but know that this isn’t always enough.
It’s so wonderful for young people to have other safe relationships in which they can explore issues, especially when there are difficult family matters to make sense of. Flourish Mentors have provided just that, an opportunity for a caring red line outside the home and it’s been amazing.
I can’t thank them enough”
