Benefits of membership to MBF

The Mentoring and Befriending Foundation offers a comprehensive membership programme to all individuals and organisations involved in mentoring or befriending.

For the member, this offers numerous benefits:
  • Complimentary copy of Rapport magazine, which is published three times a year. Rapport includes news, indepth features, interviews and funding, policy and research updates       
  • Discounted registration fees for our national training programme which was launched in 2007 and has since trained over 700 mentoring and befriending practitioners 
  • Resources and research, as members you are entitled to discounts on MBF guides, publications and DVDs
  • Discounted registration fee for the MBF national conference 2009 to be held in partnership with the Prime Minister’s Council on Social Action (CoSA)
  • MBF members help shape the future of the sector and the Foundation by getting their voice heard 
Here is what MBF members have said about membership benefits:

"I work in a project that is trying to reduce unemployment in London; I'm a member because it has enabled me to attend workshops and meet co-workers from similar projects"
Charity Worker, London

"We pay our membership so that we belong to a national body - it shows that mentoring is recognised seriously e.g., the Approved Provider Standard"
Young People, North West
