"Bringing wider benefit to the whole community"

"I have known BBBS for many years and see first-hand the positive changes that it makes in young peoples' lives. Many of the mentors become friends for life and the benefits to both mentor and mentee often extend to the wider family network.
By tackling their need for support at an early stage, BBBS brings wider benefits to the whole community by developing productive, confident youth who can on on to make great contributions, including mentoring others.

BBBS has a strong governance model with a responsible Board of Directors. Their staff do a great job representing the organisation and managing the participants."
