Young Person

A young person can self-refer via telephone (01482 303688). 

At the point of referral, a specialist nurse/practitioner will review the referral to identify any current risk factors.

If there are any risk factors highlighted, the specialist nurse/practitioner will contact you to complete a risk screening and safety plan. For this we will need to speak to the young person and carer who holds parental responsibility.
