Resilience Mentor – BOOST Plus
About Shaw Trust
At Shaw Trust we believe everyone has the right to live a decent and dignified life and an opportunity for rewarding work. We are a social purpose organisation challenging inequality and breaking down barriers to enable social mobility.
Having grown from humble beginnings in 1982 in the village of Shaw in Wiltshire, finding jobs for disabled people, today we are a complex and diverse charity committed to employment as the core pathway to a better life. For us being part of the solution is about creating the conditions for this to happen, advocating and delivering services that make a real difference. Working in partnership not competition, we are part of an eco-system of purpose-led organisations, striving for a fairer, more equal society centred on opportunity for all.
Role Purpose
BOOST Plus is an ESF funded programme commissioned by the GLA. Resilience Mentors will use a resilience compass assessment tool and Resilience Project Australia project materials to support 15-19 year olds at risk of becoming NEET into sustainable learning and work outcomes over a 15 month period.
