## About this tender

NHS North East London Clinical Commissioning Group (NELCCG) are seeking an experienced provider to support a Train the Trainers mentoring programme in Barking & Dagenham (B&D).

Train the Trainers is a school and community-based programme in which older students are trained to act as peer mentors for younger students who may be struggling with issues relating to their emotional wellbeing. Mentors and mentees meet with each other regularly for approximately 10 weeks.

This programme trains young people (aged 15 - 17yrs) in B&D schools to become peer mentors through a 2-day accredited programme of learning. These mentors are then able to offer a 10-week programme of support all mentees (aged 12 - 14yrs) - a programme that offers both 1:1 support and group based positive activities.
