This role offers an exciting opportunity to come alongside survivors of modern slavery as a mentor in the community as they establish life in Greater Manchester. Mentors will help to model healthy community within a structured relationship alongside modelling how to establish goals, giving practical advice (attending appointments, navigating transport etc) and helping celebrate successes.
This mentor relationship will be established within a group of three (a 'trio') with 2 mentors assigned to every individual survivor. Within the 'trio' (2:1) a community integration goal is set. The 2 mentors come alongside an individual to help them achieve their goal over a period of a year. The role will include regular meet-ups and working with clients to give them tools to navigate a pathway to their goal.
