Mentoring is the ideal activity for personal and professional development. Perfectly suited to e-communication, it’s a great way to impart your knowledge or offer guidance in vital areas for our sector. Alternatively, you can enhance your own skill set and explore new opportunities for growth.

How the CRA can help

Our mentoring platform is a guided matchmaking process that enables our members to build effective mentoring relationships, whereby they can either explore areas of their professional life they wish to develop, or give back by offering their own expertise.

Both charity and corporate members can participate, with charity members acting as mentors and/or mentees, and corporate members participating as mentors.

Sharing knowledge and ambition with other charity retailers strengthens our sector while providing personal and professional development and satisfaction to all involved.

Mentees:

  • Receive advice and guidance to boost their skills
  • Expand their view of the charity retail sector
  • Gain important insight into their areas of interest
  • Obtain feedback from experienced professionals

Mentors:

  • Contribute to the development of emerging professionals
  • Develop new skills beyond their current role
  • Improve their own practice through exposure to fresh ideas
  • Expand connections and networks
