Transformation
We're seeing real change in young people when they are given the right tools, and are regularly engaging with a mentor to explore more of their story. Our success is measured by the transformation we see in the lives of the students and their wider community:
Increased engagement with school and completion of education.
Behaviour improvement as a result of a growing understanding and development of themselves and their story.
Reconciliation of relationships as children connect more deeply with those around them.
A growing vision and hope to become adults of courage and character.
"I've been able to wake up in the mornings with a different perspective on School and I’m thinking positively about life now." — Eden Mentee
WHAT WE OFFER
PRIORITY MENTORING
We provide intentional 1:1 mentoring for students in secondary schools across Norfolk. We create a safe space that provides the perfect conditions for growth, allowing students to step away from the ordinary to engage in big picture thinking about their future, current decisions and who they want to be.
GROUP WORKSHOPS
While our 1:1 mentoring provides deep individual transformation, our group workshops are designed to create a shared space where students can navigate the challenges of modern culture together. These sessions cover things like navigating online content, building healthy relationships, and tackling misogyny.
We support educators with the tools to navigate the complex digital world their students inhabit. We offer staff training on: understanding and tackling the roots of misogyny, creating community amongst young people, managing the online world, and creating healthy masculinity cultures for boys.
STAFF TRAINING
COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT
We deliver thought provoking, high-impact sessions designed to champion our young people and equip our communities to best support them. These include assemblies, parent/community gatherings or presentations with flexible formats to meet specific local needs.
We partner with Schools to tackle misogyny and discuss masculinity to create environments of human flourishing

Our Mentors
Eden Mentoring is delivered as a relationship-led, school-embedded support initiative, and all mentoring activity takes place within the school’s existing safeguarding framework. Eden Mentors work alongside the school to compliment existing support pathways and to ensure young people are safe, supported and protected at all times.
Our mentors are carefully selected, thoroughly vetted, and trained to operate at the highest standards. They are recruited with appropriate background and reference checks, only work with pupils in designated school spaces and times, and engage in regular supervision to ensure that support is both safe and effective. We ensure that any concerns, disclosures or risks identified during mentoring sessions are communicated promptly and appropriately, in line with school policy.
