After three impactful years, we’ve made the tough decision to discontinue our rbinspire Mentee-Mentor Meetings in their current form.

We’re incredibly proud of what we've achieved, supporting over 150 Mentees across 400 mentoring sessions and 28 inspiring Mentee-Mentor Meetings.

We've also held five extremely popular networking and expert speaker events at Monte Forte.

🙏 We owe a huge thanks to our Mentors who have freely and generously shared the benefit of their expertise with our Mentees.

🙏 We also wish to thank our Sponsors who have enabled us to bring Mentors and Mentees together.

🙏 Finally, thank you to all the Mentees who participated with such enthusiasm. The feedback from those who benefited from the mentoring has been overwhelmingly positive.

Here’s to your continued growth and success from the team - Julian Griffiths, Alastair Watkinson, Simon Bland, Miffy Wilson (Just Ask Miffy) and Nicola Macdonald (Attractive Marketing).

A massive thanks to Matt Garman, the Corporate Adventurer, for entertaining and inspiring us with his story about rowing the Atlantic with all the highs and lows, sticky situations, awkward and honest conversations, whales, sharks and flying fish, the delight of a mouldy orange and so much more.

Above all the importance of being kind. You never know what the other person is going through or what kind of a day they are having.

Thanks to Monte Forte once again for hosting us and lots of delicious pizza. Next time you want a relaxing, casual, friendly and tasty meal out in Reigate head to Monte Forte.
