Digital Mentoring

Top Half of the South Island

Explore future goals alongside someone who will listen and can help. Mentors can help with a range of things, they can be as simple as a listening ear. Digital mentors are there to:
  • check in to see how you're doing
  • provide a positive person in your life
  • listen, and help you talk things through
  • talk about the future
  • give respect
This programme runs only in the top half of the South Island - Waitaki to Tasman.

Kia ora, I'm Sarah. 

I can can link you up with one of our great digital mentors. They are a team of senior students called the Allies. An Ally is someone who is on your side. 

It's all done right on your mobile phone using Skype Messenger. 
Picture
As your Ally, we can keep in touch throughout the week. I'm here to listen, care, show respect, and hopefully brighten up your day. I'm interested in where you want to go in the future, and how to get there.
Picture
The Allies is about young people supporting young people. We are all young or youngish ourselves, and do this in our spare time. I'm lucky enough to get to know a great girl in Timaru. 
Picture
We have been trained by Youthline, and work to a code of ethics - based on showing you respect and positive support. We are supervised. We were selected because we are friendly, emotionally mature, don't judge and do care about others.
Picture
​You need to be between 12 and 14 years old, and live in the top half of the South Island. Waimate upwards. You'll also need a device (smartphone is best), and access to wifi. 
Picture
So, get in touch, and get an Ally.

 The Allies Digital Mentoring programme is kindly sponsored by the Vodafone Foundation and the Ministry of Youth Development
