The Leadership Mentoring programme is a leadership development opportunity for people working or volunteering in voluntary, community and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations in North Yorkshire (excluding York).

We want to support new and emerging VCSE leaders to grow and realise their potential, with the aim of strengthening organisations and our communities. The programme provides you with an experienced mentor and a safe space for reflection, support or planning over a period of six months. Find out more about the programme and the benefits of mentoring here.
