Information & Advice

If you are 16-25 years old, you can access our Drop-in Information & Advice Service. Drop-in is a safe & informal space where you can socialise, use the play station, pool and DJ decks and take advantage of the Information and Advice Service which is open from 10am each day.

We offer a free and confidential information & advice service for 16 to 25 year olds. Whether you find yourself homeless, pregnant, unsure what to do with your future or career, we offer advice on a wide range of issues. The drop-in team can also help you with application forms, CVs, interview skills and UCAS forms.
Drop-in sessions are run Monday, Tuesday and Thursday 2-5.30, Fri 2-5 and Sat 3-5. If you can’t make the drop-in times contact us on the number below from 10am onwards and we'll arrange for you to come in and chat to a member of our staff team.

You can talk to someone or just pick up a leaflet about any of the following:

• Sexual health & contraception
• Careers Training & Employment
• Alcohol & drugs
• money, budgeting & funding
• emergency numbers & useful contacts
• housing & accommodation
