What We Do

Big Brothers Big Sisters (BBBS) UK supports children in West Sussex and Surrey, typically aged six to eleven, by providing one to one mentoring to those in need of an adult role model to walk alongside them.

​

Our mission is to create long-term, meaningful mentoring relationships between children and caring adult volunteers. Youth mentoring has been proven to reduce the likelihood of harmful future behaviours and to help children build confidence, resilience, and positive connections.

​

Together we are committed to helping them thrive in safe, loving family environments.

Hear from our Mentors

"I mentor an 11 year old little sister. Its been incredible watching her confidence grow and getting to offer support when she needs me. Its also been brilliant giving her new experiences including walks, visits to art galleries and the highlight of our time together, showing her London for the first time."
“For me, volunteering as a mentor the connection goes both ways. I like to think I offer support and encouragement and in return I get joy. The small wins we celebrate together make it one of the most rewarding parts of my life.”
"I think I enjoy the meet ups as much as my little. We’ve laughed a lot and shared stories, we’ve been on dog walks, litter picking, swimming, had cake, been for dinner and bowling and she has celebrated bonfire night with my family."
