Opening Your Doors to Young People:

practical guidelines for making advice services young person-friendly

Just been reading in Adviser (Number 141 September-October 2010) that young people are one of the least likely groups in society to find their way to an advice centre when they have a social welfare problem. To try to overcome this problem Youth Access, the youth advice and counselling network, has launched these new guidelines which are endorsed by Citizens Advice, AdviceUK and the Law Centres Federation.

The guidelines (PDF 24pp) were very slow to load when I tried – I’ve not actually read them!
