ICE Ilfracombe is developing and relaunching our community mentor programme, to help provide mentors for students at The Ilfracombe Academy. We are doing this with the support of an amazing charity called Life & Soul. We will benefit from their incredible expertise, resources and structures that will help ICE Ilfracombe to support and equip our mentors to provide much needed support to for students.
‘I have found it such a rewarding and inspiring few months spending this quality time with young people. The training, resource pack and awesome backing of prayers have ensured that I went into mentoring feeling well-equipped and motivated. I have confidence and assurance knowing that I can get pastoral support from the Life & Soul team if I need further guidance or a chance to off-load. No two weeks are ever the same, and I know that together as a team, we are making a huge difference to each of those individual and precious lives.’

DELTA is open every weekday in
(term time) for a 2 hour drop-in session for secondary aged young people. We have free food and activities, homework support and generally a comfortable space for young people to hang out with their friends and the volunteer team.
‘I enjoy helping at Delta each week as a volunteer. It's good to be part of a team and I am able to offer what I feel is best for me. This can be helping behind the coffee bar and washing up, to playing Scrabble, joining in craft activities, Switch or pool. Sometimes the most valuable thing I can offer is simply chatting and listening to the young people and giving them time.'
