About us
Who we are
Brightside wants to make sure that every young person has the right support and information to achieve their ambitions, regardless of their background. We use online mentoring to connect young people with inspirational role models and trusted information so they can make confident and informed decisions about their next steps.
We use our years of experience as the UK’s leading social enterprise for online mentoring to help organisations identify, reach and inspire young people. We find and train the best mentors, connect them with young people, and support them as they work together through our award-winning programmes. Our mentoring introduces young people to opportunities from employers and universities so they can develop the knowledge and confidence they need to succeed. Our mentors get the satisfaction of making a real, positive difference to somebody else’s life.
