What is RAMP?

Mentoring is a personal and professional development partnership, which helps to build confidence for participants to take charge of and advance their own careers, in the short, mid and long terms. At a point when many people face barriers to progression in their professional careers, RAMP aims to open access to industry leaders, expertise and support, addressing personal challenges and advancing equity in the industry.

• Get one-to-one mentoring with a senior leader in the industry.
• Develop a close peer network, which will support you throughout your career.
• Gain leadership skills at bespoke workshops and coaching sessions.

The scheme runs for six months, during which time mentees will receive six hours of mentoring contact with an experienced industry figure. In addition, mentees will benefit from being part of a supportive cohort, experience peer-to-peer feedback, and have access to seminars and networking events designed to boost confidence, enhance skills and provide ongoing support.​

RAMP 2025 will be led by Fran Plowright. Founder and curator of Meet a Mentor, Fran has a background in audio and TV production, and leads on a number of mentoring and training programmes in the creative industries.
