Youth Mentorship Programme
WINBarclays and Shine Development Concept CIC are partnering up for the 2023 Youth Mentorship Programme
The aim of the Mentorship Programme is to connect young people from BAME communities to friendly professional mentors from WINBarclays who are committed to providing development support to them through mentorship.
It provides a unique opportunity of informal mentoring sessions with experienced professionals who take time to listen and understand their mentees. Mentors will advise and guide young people in the path to achieve their career goals and to improve their employability skills.
The mentoring programme will run virtually for 30 minutes lasting 6 weeks. With mentee’s being awarded a certificate of participation.
The next cohort starts:
Monday 13 March 2023
Registration is open and closes Tuesday 7th of March 2023

Pastures Winter Night Shelter
This project is a joint effort of Shine Development Concept CIC and New Covenant Church Northampton. Pasture Night Shelter is an extension of the love of Jesus to the homeless and rough sleepers in Northampton who sleep on the streets during winter. The shelter provides a high quality, warm and safe space to the homeless in Northampton where they can come for a good meal, get their laundry and personal hygiene sorted out and get a good night sleep. We accommodate 10 people every night both male and female. We welcome more passionate people to join our team of volunteers who support the homeless and treat them with dignity & respect at the Night Shelter. For any enquries please email us at pasturesshelter@gmail.com
CONSULTANCY
We are always happy to help people who want to help their community through social action/enterprise. We offer strategic support services to individuals or organisations who want to start or grow their social enterprise. We have qualified social enterprise mentors who are happy to be of help.
Voluntary Work Opportunities
We offer young people from Sixth form to University students voluntary work opportunities ranging from one month period to a year. This always improves their workplace skills and increases their chance of employability. It also helps them have a good idea of how to run their own business.
