The Olive Hut is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to supporting children who are previously looked after and currently looked-after children. We provide one-to-one mentoring services in Salford and throughout Greater Manchester.
Our primary aim is to promote their mental health and overall wellbeing by offering a tailored mentoring support plan that is personalised to meet each child's unique needs.
Who We Are
What We Offer
With over 15 years of experience, we combine a therapeutic approach with our in-depth understanding of mentoring to provide a relatable and effective service. Our tailored interventions include activities that focus on building resiliency, self-esteem, and decision-making skills, helping young people overcome the challenges of attachment and trauma. We empower each child’s voice while addressing areas such as emotional literacy, anger management, setting healthy boundaries, and preparing for the future. At the end of the six-month mentoring period, each young person receives a token of remembrance as a symbol of their growth and progress.
The Olive Hut is a compassionate and highly impactful not-for-profit organisation that provides invaluable one-to-one mentoring for young people who have experienced the challenges of being looked after. This includes those who have transitioned out of care through adoption or special guardianship orders, as well as those who are currently in care. Our mentoring services are available to young people across Greater Manchester and are designed to make a lasting difference in their lives, lasting up to 6 months. Each young person receives dedicated mentoring, with 1-2 hours of support each week, creating a strong and consistent foundation for their emotional and personal growth.
