Jamie Ellis - RLE Mentor

Jamie, a former professional rugby league player, has found a new passion in mentoring young people through Real Life Education (RLE). 

While his rugby career taught him resilience, discipline, and the importance of making good decisions, it’s the opportunity to share these lessons and inspire others that he finds most rewarding.
As an RLE Mentor, Jamie genuinely enjoys working with young people, helping them grow in confidence, develop essential life skills, and overcome challenges. He takes pride in building positive relationships, offering guidance, and seeing the impact that encouragement and support can have on a young person’s future.
Jamie is committed to making a real difference, using his experiences to motivate, inspire, and empower young people to believe in themselves and take control of their own path. Jamie embeds motivation into self-help and values with a resilient attitude to challenging situations. Jamie has been described as an essential part of the team by young people and teams he has worked with and is highly valued by those around him. Jamie holds genuine care in high regards and this is demonstrated in his willingness to go above and beyond for all those around him. Jamie will step outside his comfort zone to encourage bravery in the projects he leads.
