On Saturday 10th May, we were delighted to welcome our first group of 2025 mentees to The Stables at MyEdinburgh, Montgomery Street Lane for an inspiring and energising Mentoring Programme induction session.

The day introduced mentees to the aims of the programme, offered guidance on how to get the most out of mentoring relationships, and provided insight into the Emergenetics profiling tool – a key part of the mentoring approach to supporting meaningful, productive connections.

As shared during the session, the next step is for each mentee to read through the anonymised “personal pitches” from the mentors, and choose three mentors they’d like to have an informal conversation with. These chats are a chance to explore what kind of support, advice, or experience a mentor might be able to offer.

We’re excited to see where this journey takes the mentees and mentors and look forward to supporting the mentees every step of the way.
