Terrie Johnson - Fruit to Suit

“Although I have only met my mentor twice, I have already seen the benefits to myself and fruit to suit. The matching process was obviously very thorough as the match between my own personal needs and my mentor were excellent. Spot on! Setting up and running your own business can be a very lonely and frustrating experience. You have to learn and develop new skills that are way out of your comfort zone. Family and friends, with the best will in the world, do not really understand and tell you ‘Oh, you’ll be fine!’ before their eyes start to glaze over! It’s when they start to dribble - I know I’ve lost them!! It’s fantastic to be able to talk with someone who does understand as they has already been through the problems and issues themselves. It’s not necessarily that I am looking for answers - quite often just talking something through with someone makes everything clearer. I do think that the Mentoring Program is excellent and I would love to be able to return the favour and be a mentor one day in the future.”

Liz Howard - Sensory Toy Warehouse

“Yes I met up with Cathy in December for the first time and the experience was nothing short of wonderful. I know that I am going to benefit so much from our relationship. We are due to meet up again this month and I’m really looking forward to it..”
