Mentoring charity Arts Emergency is seeking volunteers from the creative and cultural sectors to join them as it expands its reach to help more young people.
Arts Emergency said its mentoring programme is designed to tackle inequalities within the creative industries at a grassroots level by pairing passionate young people with mentors who are established professionals in various creative fields.
The organisation says ideal candidates include artists, writers, designers, musicians, actors, curators, and other professionals in the arts and humanities from the London, Greater Manchester and Merseyside areas who can spare one hour a month to share their experience with young talent.
Neil Griffiths, CEO and Co-founder of Arts Emergency said: "No matter what you've achieved, someone at some time gave you a leg up, and Arts Emergency is thousands of people from across the cultural and creative industries doing just that for the next generation by donating money, time and contacts to help them get in and get on."
