MCR Pathways is a national young persons mentoring charity. Their school-based Young Talent programme seeks to support vulnerable young people (particularly those with experience of the care system) with adult volunteer mentors.
I started out volunteering as a designer with MCR Pathways back in February 2020 and worked as the sole full-time graphic designer from January 2021 to January 2022. I worked to maintain and develop both the MCR Pathways (corporate/volunteer facing) and Young Talent (schools/council facing) brands.
The role involved creating a variety of engaging print and digital graphics aimed at mentor recruitment, young person engagement, and partner communication (schools, council, corporate). I designed materials such as printed posters & leaflets, training & process manuals, training & process presentations, social media graphics, Canva templates, website assets, Mailchimp campaign assets, infographics, diagrams, reports, case studies, and maps.
