The Creative Mentor Network (CMN) is a London-based charity working to make the creative industries more diverse and inclusive through mentoring.
The programme sees a host of talent from some of world’s top agencies link up with young mentees to advise and guide them on their future careers. It also offers a first-hand feel for agency life and introduces them to all the different disciplines that exist within the creative environment.

Very Interesting and love the approach. I my self have been mentoring a graphic design junior hoping to get into the. industry and its really motivating from both sides as I can pass on knowledge and experience whilst being inspired by the enthusiasm and creativity a new generation brings.Mentoring is an excellent way to become industry ready as I have supported on a Graphics degree course and they do an excellent job in the technical and creative but there is that real life experience missing from the day to day lectures and tutorials. somewhere there needs to be a balance.
