New Mentoring Programme to Christchurch. Mentors Needed
Carabiner Mentoring is a unique programme for young people with disabilities who demonstrate the skills, motivation and determination to achieve a specific aspirational goal.
Carabiner matches young people with “experts” and leaders in the field that they are aspiring towards. Mentors do not need experience with disability, as the most important link between the young person and the mentor is the shared interest and the introduction to a new network that can support the mentee with their goal.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
