Get help and advice
Ask your personal mentor for advice on:
Our mentors provide advice and support for young people considering a career in STEM (the Sciences, Technology, Engineering or Maths). You may already have a career path in mind, or still be considering your options. Our mentors work in a huge range of roles, from medicine to conservation to space science: who better to learn from than somebody already in the field?
Our mentoring programme serves people age 14 and 19, living in Wales. As a social mobility charity, our mission to give every young person in Wales the opportunity of accessing a career in STEM and the life-sciences, regardless of their background. Whether you're the first person in your family planning to go to university, a young carer or experienced in care, or maybe living with a disability - we believe that no-one's circumstances should prevent them from pursuing their goals in STEM.

Fill out the form below to register your interest by September 23. Students are matched with a mentor one to two weeks before the start of each e-Mentoring session. Then you'll login to our e-Mentoring app to start chatting to your mentor.
We try to match students with mentors in their specific field of interest. We also ask you to list some secondary interests, in case this is not possible.
