What We Do

One to One Mentoring

Yedid offers weekly one to one mentoring with trained and supervised mentors, supporting boys from all schools and backgrounds. Mentoring sessions are tailored to each child’s individual needs and goals.

Flexible and Accessible

Sessions take place once a week at a time that works for both mentor and mentee, during the day or evening, any day of the week. This flexibility allows us to support boys who may be excluded from school or on reduced timetables, ensuring they can still receive consistent support during school hours.

Sessions are held at mutually agreed, safe public venues such as parks, cafes, libraries, shuls, or outdoor gyms.
