I am currently in training to become a Next Gen M.E.M®
The Next Gen Mental Health Empowerment Mentor (MEM) Training Programme is a CPD-accredited course designed to train adults to work with children and young people in a non-clinical, non-medical capacity.
The programme focuses on:
- Building emotional awareness and resilience.
- Supporting children to recognise, express, and regulate emotions.
- Mentoring around self-belief, self-esteem, and personal empowerment.
- Providing safe one-to-one or small group sessions using trauma-informed, child-centered approaches.
- Equipping mentors with tools such as communication strategies, reflective questioning, visual resources, and empowerment exercises.
The training is rooted in education and wellbeing, not therapy or counseling. Mentors do not diagnose or treat; they provide supportive, guided mentoring to encourage positive mental health, behaviour navigation, and confidence building.
Age Range of Children & Young People
The MEM Programme supports children and young people typically between ages 5–18 (school-aged).
In some cases, mentors may work with young adults up to age 25, particularly those with SEND (Special Educational Needs & Disabilities) or vulnerable groups.
All M.E.M’s are Accredited Belief Coding Facilitators.
I have watched my son battle with anxiety and self belief and I thank God this work found me to enable me to help my child and in turn help others. It’s an extremely hard and complex world to navigate and children often need more support than schools can give. That’s where myself and my fellow MEMs can assist.
To discuss me potentially working with your child, or a child in your care please contact me for a no obligation Free 15 min call.
“I just want to acknowledge how well you’ve done, both in your training and in life. You bring not only knowledge, but a heart-led presence that will make a real difference. So proud to have you on our MEM team! Keep going, you’re doing amazing!”
Kind regards,Gemma Anyon (M.E.M)Founder & Director
