"It feels really rewarding to have taken part; I felt so uplifted that my mentee thanked me for what they achieved on their journey at university. I highly recommend the programme."
Lisa-Marie Noronha-John, student mentor
"The whole experience was awesome. I had a brilliant mentor, who went out of her way to make sure I achieved my targeted goals. My confidence as an individual has improved and I have been able to overcome the fear about facing an interview. I will definitely recommend this mentoring scheme to others."
Blessing Ogbenna Nlems, student mentee
