Monday Mentoring

What is Monday Mentoring?

Supported by Here East, Hackney Bridge and Loughborough University London Alumni, the Monday Mentoring programme links students to professionals connected to our London campus. The programme supports our students to set and achieve personal and professional development goals. It encourages them to work together, connect and build strong relationships with both their mentors and other mentees.

Across a six week programme, every Monday, mentors and mentees come together in their small groups to discuss their goals. The programme is a great way for students to reflect on their skills, build a network and take action on their goals.

The Future Space team provides a goal setting canvas to help structure the sessions which helps to track any potential barriers or support that may be required to help achieve students' goals.

The Monday Mentoring programme is proud to have welcomed mentors from a range of career backgrounds including sport, marketing, and the creative industries. It has seen professionals from IBM, Amazon and BT provide our students with the unique opportunity to gain knowledge and insights from mentors across different sectors.
