Mentoring in North West England

In "Oh Me! Oh My! I hope the Little Mentor Comes By" I alluded to one of the greatest hits of one of the North West's greatest sons. I was reminded of the song by the name of the British Bankers Association mentoring network "mentorsme.co.uk".

This organization has a database of local mentors and here are those for the North West:

- Designated Associates of Birkenhead;

- Community & Business Partners of Blackburn;

- Get Results of Macclesfield;

- Business Best Practice Network also of Macclesfield;

- Easy as Pi Ltd of Liverpool;

- Cumbria Rural Enterprise Agency of Kendal;

- Orvia if Preston;

- Leadergen of Manchester.

The mentorsme.co.uk also listed the following national organizations that operate in the region:

• Business in the Community;
• ibd Group;
• Prime Business Club;
• Exigent Mentoring Services;
• The Prince's Trust;
• Shine People and Places;
• Institute of Enterprise and Entrepreneurs; and
• horesmouth.co.uk.

The last two organizations are on-line only.
