Wot
u need to know
We try to make the service as private as possible. It’s
open on Thursday evenings in Maryhill and Wednesday in
Sandyford North for young people aged 12-19 ONLY.
The service is confidential & below is our promise
Here to listen and not to tell
We provide a confidential service to all our young people, including
under 16’s. This means you can tell others about this
visit but we won’t.
The only reason why we might have to consider passing on confidential
information without your permission, would be to protect you
or someone else from very serious harm. We would always try
to discuss this with you first.
If you have any worries about confidentiality, please feel free
to ask a member of the project staff.
About ur rights / responsibilities
How old do I have to be????
In Scotland it is legal to do certain things at certain times.
If you are under 18 years of age click
here to find out
what & when.
The UN convention on the rights of the Child is an International
standard which agrees to help protect young people and encourage
them to become responsible adults.
Article 12 is quite important, for young people, for example
did you know that you have the right to see a Doctor on your
own, about anything at all from age 12 years? This is one of
the reasons we have a YHS here on a Thursday night.
To find out more about Article 12 you can phone 0131
