The Why Not? Trust

Are you a parent in Scotland?

The Why Not Trust support care experienced parents across Scotland. We are a welcoming online community where parents can receive access to resources, one to one support and information.

We are looking for volunteers to become Peer Mentors, providing support to soon to be or new care-experienced parents. We aim to create a judgment and stigma-free community of mentors and mentees where trusting one-to-one relationships can be established. 

Some of the many benefits include:
• Become part of a supportive, non-judgemental community
• Get matched with a fellow parent you have something in common with
• Meetings that fit your schedule – online or in person
• Receive accredited mentor training
• Get paid for your travel expenses and other expenses
• Improve your own confidence as well as your mentees
• Develop your communication and listening skills
