A volunteer mentor meets their young person for an hour a week, during term-time only, within the 1 of the 8 schools in Dundee where the young person attends

Changing lives through mentoring. Our award-winning programme believes in the power of connection, communication and the overall transformational potential of mentoring in school and community settings. We match adult volunteer mentors from all walks of life, careers and experiences with young people experiencing a range of challenging circumstances, to build confidence, overcome obstacles, awaken ambition and much more. Just one hour a week can ignite the vital spark in a young person, helping them find a path to positive futures. Change a life. Be the difference in ensuring young people don’t have to navigate life’s toughest challenges alone.


Every young person has a vital spark within them - a unique potential waiting to be seen, nurtured, and set alight. Through encouragement, empathy, and belief, you can become the catalyst that ignites the vital spark. By nurturing this spark, help young people to find the confidence to pursue their passions, believe in themselves, and confront their challenges. But the beauty of this idea is that the transformation flows both ways. By helping a young person uncover their inner light, you too may discover something powerful within yourself - a renewed sense of purpose, compassion and connection. Together, let’s spark ambition and change lives through mentoring.

About MCR Pathways

We see the spark when others may not. In every young person, there’s a flicker of ambition, a potential waiting to ignite.

But for too many, an unfair start in life can dim that flame. Every day spent alone, navigating challenges without support, is a day further from the bright future all young people deserve.

Become a volunteer mentor and change a life.
