‘I've built an immense amount of character skills as a result of being a mentor and it's been so rewarding not just for me but seemingly for the mentees that participate. We've had the freedom and autonomy really to structure the sessions and tailor them to how mentees need us to. I've developed leadership, public speaking, communication, interpersonal, presentation skills and amongst many more. It's such a creative way to help mentees’ – PASS Mentor feedback
