Working with a Heropreneurs mentor is right for you if...

You have a clear business idea you want to start up within the next 6 months and, before you start to invest time and money in your idea, want to talk with someone experienced to test out your plans. Sense-checking your plans with a fresh pair of eyes on your business is invaluable.

You have been running your business for 6 months+ and are looking at how to grow and scale your business. Maybe you are looking to grow your team or take on a commercial lease or this is your next step, and you want some support in how to take this forward. If so, then working with one of our mentors is a logical next step.

Who can apply?

We work with SMEs, sole traders and CIC/ charity founders who are either serving in the UK Armed Forces, a Veteran or the spouse or dependant of someone who is/has been in the UK Armed Forces.

How does the mentoring programme work?

After meeting with our Mentoring Manager, you will be given access to our mentoring platform. You will be asked to connect with a mentor and once you have a confirmed mentoring relationship, you will have up to 12 months to work together, but this can vary depending on need and stage.

It will be your responsibility to check-in on a monthly basis with your mentor, to update us here at Heropreneurs with your progress or challenges, and make sure you have made the necessary meetings with them to keep moving forward.

Every mentoring relationship is different, but they work the best when you -
1- Have regular contact
2- Like and respect each other
3- Work together

How much will it cost me?

The Heropreneurs mentoring programme is free to those from the military community. Our incredible mentors give their time freely and our services can only be provided thanks to the generous support of charitable foundations, sponsors and individual donors.
