Thank you for your interest in joining The Mayfly Project!
Becoming a TMP mentor means you agree that mentoring goes beyond just teaching a child how to fly fish– it means you are dedicated to providing a safe environment for children in foster care to find a connection with the outdoors! TMP requires an interview, reference checks, and a background check for applicants.
TMP does not accept any mentors who have a criminal history in the past 5-10 years, have current drug or alcohol addictions, or any applicants who have a felony or convicted of child abuse. Mentors must be at least 18 years old, ready to commit to at least the 5 mentoring sessions, and willingness to learn about how to best work with this population!
Thank you for giving your time to help the kids who need us most! We look forward to having you onboard!
Join TMP in the United Kingdom!

“During the project, each child had a mentor to bond with that made them feel safe during this project. The children took risks that showed they felt comfortable in the situation. The mentors were all very patient and willing to work with the children to make this experience a great one. There was a lot of praise when the children were successful in catching a fish or tying the right knot. They left feeling capable and proud.”
