The Mentor Ring recognizes that others are dealing with far more complex and impactful challenges than where we find ourselves. Our goal is to do our part for global well-being. We are following guidelines from Public Health, we have closed our offices and cancelled our face-to-face group sessions, workshops, training as well as 1-1 and Peer mentoring, until further notice.
Nevertheless, we currently mentoring via phone & online platforms, we are still running our coffee mornings but via skype. We also run Yoga and salsa sessions online for those with anxiety, or anyone who wants to engage with something during the pandemic. For Youth & children we suggest arts & crafts, music and fitness to get kids moving and minds thinking during this time. Click here for the details of what we’re currently offering remotely.

Baking is Fun Campaign
The current situation (Global Pandemic) can be disheartening at times, As a charity we want to set up this campaign to help those who have a passion for baking, or want to start baking! We want to help those who do not have the ingrediants, recipes or know where to start.
With your donations we can help baking fanatics alike to come up with brillant dishes! Not only does it reduce mental health issues, it is a therapuetic way to get creative and learn something during the quarantine period!
COVID-19-Support
The Mentor Ring is helping in the current crisis to alleviate pressure on the health service or providing support to people suffering from the economic and social impact of coronavirus. Supporting the national response and helping vulnerable people through mentoring and engaging them with activities to cope is our first priority at the moment .
Interactive sessions
The pandemic has affected many of us worldwide, as a charity we want to be able to engage children the best we can. We are offering online sessions to children and young people at this time. However, we are in need of rescources like paper, pens arts & crafts and activities to keep them engaged, we also need to pay for a childrens coordinator during this time.
With your help we are able to continue and make our sessions more lively and interactive, we coud use the money to send various rescources to the children so they are not glued to their devices and have some form of social interaction through our online sessions. a little goes a long way so please donate!
For more information about these campaigns please don’t hesitate to contact us!
