NEW FOR 2011/12, M and M LGBT Mentoring.  Click here to find out more information.

Peer Mentoring is based at UCLan Main Campus and is M and M's largest programme. It is centred on matching trained Peer Mentors to students who need someone to talk to about personal issues and general academic queries – the student requiring support is known as a mentee.  

Burnley Peer Mentoring offers the same fantastic peer support as found at the Main Campus but operates at Burnley Campus.

Wellbeing Buddy Mentoring Student life can be stressful at times. Perhaps you are struggling to cope with coursework, exams, financial matters, balancing your work and social life or you are just finding the pressures of University life overwhelming? A Wellbeing Buddy can listen to your concerns and support you to deal with the worries that are concerning you the most.

Sport Mentoring & Befriending trains students interested in sports, to become Sport Mentors & Befrienders. They are able to assist mentees who want to improve their health, social skills, confidence and self-esteem, and increase their friendship networks through actively participating in sport, fitness and exercise.

futures Mentoring is our programme for industry mentors (futures Mentors) to support final year student Mentors with their employability prospects. We are always looking for new futures Mentors so if you are interested in supporting a student check out the webpage and register!
