As you know, the Informal Mentoring Project is a pilot scheme providing mentors for ex-offenders after release from prison. M & E Consulting has been commissioned to carry out an external evaluation of the pilot scheme.
We are now in the final phase of the evaluation and would like to find out what your experience has been in terms of being a mentor. The following survey is anonymous and will only take about 10 minutes to complete.
We would really appreciate your help. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact [email protected] |
