**The Institute of Fundraising South West is seeking volunteer mentors, and mentees,
for this year’s programme.**

The [IoF South West](https://www.institute-of-fundraising.org.uk/groups/regional-south-west/)
mentoring programme matches experienced fundraising professionals with less experienced
members at junior to mid-management level who are seeking help with their personal
development.

Mentors volunteer and mentees pay a flat £100 fee to cover the costs of administering
the scheme. However, concessions may be available for those who come from small 
charities with incomes under £100,000.

A matching session will kick off the programme, and feedback from this will then
enable its co-ordinators to identify an appropriate mentor for each mentee. If both
the mentee and the mentor are happy with the pairing, they will embark on a mutually
agreed development programme, which will comprise a combination of face-to-face 
meetings, emails and telephone support of approximately four hours per month for
a period of twelve months.

Key dates:

 * Deadline for applications – Friday 28 June
 * Assessment of applications – Tuesday 2 July
 * Informing successful and unsuccessful applicants – by Friday 12 July
 * Mentor and mentee matching day – Wednesday 11 September
 * Mentor training day (Mark Hughes) – Friday 20 September
