“Kate’s a real diamond. She’s been there through thick and thin and she’s still here. She’s never given up on me.”

Human stories, real-life success.

When measuring our impact it’s very easy to focus solely on the statistics or economics – see further down this page – but they really only tell half the story. The other, more important half is about the young individuals behind those numbers. It takes a lot of guts, effort and determination for a young offender to change their mindset and save themselves from spending life in a never ending criminal cycle. So although we are very proud of the statistics our mentoring initiatives achieve, we prefer to measure our true impact on a more personal level first. The real success is watching a mentee succeed and change their life around. And that’s worth much, much more than a number.
