Opportunity for Young People
Carabiner Mentoring is an unique programme for young people with disabilities who demonstrate motivation and determination to achieve a specific goal. Carabiner makes a connection between these young people and an "expert" or leader in their field of interest. Young people have the opportunity to connect with someone who has "been there and done that", while mentors have the opportunity to pass on their knowledge and experiences, and see young people achieve their goals and aspirations.
If you, or know of a young person who:
Are aged between 18-25
Have a disability
Have a specific aspirational goal
Are driven and motivated to achieve
Please get in touch with us through private message or email kerri@carabiner
