Welcome to The Mentor Ring
Working ‘at the heart of the community’ to provide mentoring support and guidance to people of all ages and backgrounds.
Our Story
The Mentor Ring is a community-based charity supporting individuals through mentoring and guiding people of all ages and backgrounds, helping them to overcome significant barriers to social inclusion.
We believe that no individual should be excluded from active participation in employment, training, education, community life or social activities because of cultural, language, physical, mental or emotional health issues.
Our Mission
The Mentor Ring’s mission is to empower individuals from diverse socio-economic backgrounds to overcome barriers and reach their full potential. Through tailored mentoring, workshops, skill-building, and community events, we support education, employment, health, and social inclusion, fostering resilience, self-confidence, and integration. Our work creates lasting positive change across communities in Wales and England.

The Mentor Ring (TMR) has proudly received the Investing in Volunteers award from the Wales Council for Voluntary Action (WCVA), underscoring TMR’s commitment to outstanding volunteer management.

Silver Award Armed Forces Covenant 2023
The Mentor Ring recognise the value serving personnel, reservists, veterans and military families bring to our business and to our country. We will seek to uphold the principles of the Armed Forces Covenant.
The Mentor Ring is delighted to announce that we have received the Employer Recognition Scheme Silver Award for 2023 from the Ministry of Defence for our support of the Armed Forces community. Our policy is to support armed forces personnel and their families in both staff and volunteer roles. We ensure that anyone in any branch of the armed forces, including family members, who work in an employed or volunteer role for our organisation is given the time to dedicate to their responsibilities. We promise to continue to support full-time armed forces members, reservists and their families.


Internationals Womens Day 2025
A huge shout out to the talented performers who brought energy and joy through dance and music, the inspiring panellists who shared their wisdom, and our fantastic moderator who guided the discussion seamlessly. The passion and insights shared reaffirm the power of collective efforts in driving change. To all who participated, attended, or supported—your contributions matter! Let’s continue to uplift, empower, and support each other.

World Radio Day 2025
For over a century, radio has been a trusted companion—educating, entertaining, and empowering communities. But did you know that radio is also a crucial tool in the fight against climate change? From remote villages to bustling cities, radio reaches millions, delivering critical information to those who need it most. Unlike digital platforms that rely on the internet, radio cuts through digital barriers, ensuring that everyone, including those in rural areas or without online access, stays informed about environmental changes and what we can do to protect our planet.
Radio is more than just a medium—it’s a call to action. Through powerful storytelling, expert discussions, and community-led initiatives, radio stations around the world are: Raising awareness about extreme weather events, rising temperatures, and the impact of deforestation. Highlighting solutions, from local sustainability efforts to innovative green technologies. Giving a voice to marginalised communities, particularly those disproportionately affected by climate change, such as small island nations, farmers, and indigenous groups.
Radio has always been a medium of change. From revolutions to rescue efforts, from education to empowerment, it remains a lifeline of communication. So then on World Radio Day 2025, let’s use the power of radio to amplify solutions, inspire action, and protect our planet for generations to come. Thank you for tuning in—let’s keep the conversation going!”
