development of strong positive relationships between mentors and mentees

Beziehungsaufbau und Interaktiosfähigkeiten

The evaluation found the current Le Chéile model of mentoring to be robust and effective, with the strong positive relationship between the mentor and mentee a key feature. The fact that mentors are volunteers was highlighted as a major strength of the model. Mentoring was also seen as having a valuable role in providing support for young people during care and in transition from care.
