Mentors needed for vital program
The Warrnambool TAC L2P Program is calling for local residents to consider becoming a mentor driver, as they look to keep up with the demand of young people needing driving experience.
Program coordinator Phil Jones, says the initiative pairs mentors with young people aiming to achieve their 120 hours, who may not have access to a vehicle or supervising driver. We want to try and keep building the program, and with the L2P program the main factor in the growth of the program is mentors he said. That flows on to the amount of people we can have in the program, we ve actually got a waiting list at the moment of around 17 young people .
