Participation in formal mentoring programmes here remains low. A poll of 1,500 people aged 16 to 34 years old, conducted in February this year, found that only 11 per cent of them had taken part in programmes which could help them.
Of those who had not participated in a formal mentoring programme, 63 per cent said they would be open to doing so. But the poll showed there was a significant lack of awareness of formal mentoring programmes and little knowledge of those which are suitable for them.
