What is Connexions?                                                    [BACK TO TOP]

Connexions is a confidential advice and support service for all 13-19 year olds (up to age 25 for young people with special needs). Connexions has been set up with the help of young people, for young people, who have a real say in how the service is run and how it develops in the future.

Connexions helps young people prepare for adult life by offering advice and support on a wide range of lifestyle issues, including:

• Education
• Training
• Careers
• Employment
• Health
• Personal development

Connexions can also help with other important issues such as bullying, problems at home or at work, drugs, relationships or money. No matter what your situation, we can provide extra help and support to young people who need it.

What is a Connexions Personal Adviser (PA)?         [BACK TO TOP]

Every Connexions Centre and secondary school has a Connexions Personal Adviser who is on hand to talk about everything from learning, training and employment to problems at home. Your Adviser will get to know you and offer the information and guidance that is best for you as an individual and will help you make positive choices about your future.

There are also Connexions Personal Advisers who can help you overcome any problems or barriers which may stop you from reaching your full potential.
