Join us for Mole Valley Chamber's Networking Breakfast

We are delighted to invite you to Mole Valley Chamber's monthly networking breakfast. This is a fantastic opportunity to connect with local businesses, enjoy a delicious breakfast, and gain valuable insights from our inspiring guest speaker.

Our speaker this month is Liz Grace from MCR Pathways.

MCR Pathways are an award winning charity that provides 1-2-1 mentoring for young people in schools across Surrey. Their mentors are all volunteers who give just 1 hour a week to support a young person facing challenges. No specific experience is required; they give full training and ongoing support.

Liz will be talking about the power of mentoring and how this not only supports our young people and ultimately our whole community but it also the benefits those people who give their time to mentor as well as the employers who allow their staff to get involved with volunteering, specifically mentoring, and how it can benefit their Social Value/CSR efforts.

To summarise: mentoring has clear impacts for all:

• the mentee has the support of a reliable and caring adult relationship to help them with their challenges;
• the mentor develops skills in many areas including empathy and active listening, communication and hence core leadership skills;
• the employer/business benefits through increased morale, staff development, staff retention, productivity and engagement with a truly impactful local social purpose.
