Our mentees

We have run three mentoring schemes, in 2016-7, 2021-2 and 2023-4, and intend to run more, dependent on funding. Our former mentees include Branford Boase and Jhalak Prize winner Maisie Chan (Danny Chung Does Not Do Maths, Keep Dancing Lizzie Chu ), multiple prize winner/ nominee Danielle Jawando (And the Stars Were Burning Brightly, When Our Worlds Collided) and Joyce Efia Harmer (How Far We’ve Come), Nazima Pathan (Dream Hunters), Iqbal Hussain (The Night I Borrowed Time). Below is a list of all our mentees with the year of mentoring – we are so proud of all of them!
