Our Services
A Two-Tier Model of Meaningful Support
Sidekick Mentoring & Training CIC delivers targeted intervention and community engagement through two complementary tiers — designed to meet individuals where they are, at the times they need it most.
Out-of-Hours Mentoring
Our core offer is built around bespoke 1-1 and group mentoring with a strong emphasis on evenings, weekends, and high-risk periods often linked to anti-social behaviour, exploitation, and emotional vulnerability. We provide a wraparound, side-by-side support model — ensuring individuals are never left without guidance when services close.
Bespoke 1-1 and group mentoring tailored to the individual
Delivered during evenings, weekends, and other high-risk periods
Immediate support and intervention when risk is heightened
Side-by-side presence building trusted, consistent relationships
Personalised action plans promoting positive choices and accountability
Mentors are experts by experience — authentically connecting where traditional services struggle
Community Workshops & Projects
Tier 2 focuses on early intervention, awareness, and community engagement. Our "My Story" workshops use real-life experiences to educate, challenge thinking, and open honest conversations around key issues. Sessions are designed to be relatable, engaging, and impactful — helping individuals reflect, learn, and make more informed decisions. We also deliver community-based projects shaped by local need, working collaboratively with partners to create positive opportunities.

Honest, challenging conversations about the real impact of criminal behaviour — told through lived experience.
