Our E Day Programme Class Mentors support young people to develop financial awareness and enterprise skills through engaging, one‑day, school‑based programmes.

 

About the Role
As an E Day Class Mentor, you will work with a small group of young people to help deliver pre‑designed activities that bring enterprise and money skills to life. You’ll support learning by encouraging participation and sharing your own experiences where appropriate.

Work with students across varied age groups

Act as a supportive and encouraging role model
Help create a positive, engaging learning environment


Where You’ll Volunteer

Primarily in person within schools
Working alongside teaching staff, Young Enterprise employees, and other volunteers
Most programmes run for one full day

Volunteers can choose to support as many or as few E Day programmes as they wish.

 

Who We’re Looking For
A great Class Mentor will be:

Willing to get involved and support young people
Patient, encouraging, and open‑minded
Comfortable working with young people (no previous experience required)
Able to communicate clearly and appropriately
Confident using basic IT


Why Volunteer?

Help young people build confidence and workplace skills
Support meaningful learning in real‑world contexts
Use your experience to inspire the next generation
Flexible volunteering that fits around other commitments
