About Connexions

Connexions is a FREE service that offers information, advice and guidance to young people about careers, education, training, employment, health, benefits, housing, leisure, volunteering and other topics young people want to know about.  This will enable them to have the best start possible in their adult and working lives. If necessary, practical help and support will be given.

All 13-19 year olds can use Connexions.  Young people aged up to 25 years of age with special needs can also use Connexions.  Young people can use Connexions whether they are in school, college, at work, in training or if they are unemployed.

HOW DOES CONNEXIONS WORK?
All young people have access to a Personal Advisor (PA) who can give them help and information. PA's are based in schools, colleges, Connexions offices and in the community.
