Open to prisoners and those on probation. Free support, mentoring, editing, proofreading and publishing opportunity.

Recruiting now: Volunteer Mentors

📒We are currently looking for volunteer mentors, skilled in creative, academic and journalistic writing to provide 1-1 writing and editing support to our mentees.📒

If you think the role of mentor could be for you, join our bunch of friendly, likeminded volunteers looking to use their skills to make a real difference.

By becoming a mentor with Arkbound, you will not only install confidence and boost the self esteem of your mentee, but yourself as well!

As our mentoring content creator Beatrice says ‘mentoring is a mutually beneficial process’ and we couldn’t agree more…

Through gaining fresh perspectives and challenging old behaviour, you will:

☑️exercise seeing the world differently

☑️unlock your emotional intelligence

☑️get that #feelgoodfactor knowing you’ve helped someone step closer towards their dreams.

For more information on applying to become a mentor, please email info@arkfound.org
