ABOUT CSMENTORING
CSMentoring, an approved partner of The Mentoring School, delivers certified courses to equip mentors with the skills, knowledge and confidence needed to positively change the lives of young people.
Background:
CSMentoring was founded by mentor and communities specialist Colin Seaton, to raise the standards and professionalise youth mentoring.
Colin has a long history of achievement in working with young people and has received awards, including a lifetime achievement award, for his work towards community safety, community cohesion, youth engagement and development.
Colin was mentoring vulnerable teenagers from socially disadvantaged areas focusing on the correlation between the trauma caused by adverse childhood experiences and behaviour. This resulted in educational establishments and social organisations reaching out to Colin to mentor and guide these young people through their difficulties.
Andy Boyd is a qualified Level 7 Coach delivering Coaching and Mentoring courses to both the public and private sector.
