Q: Do you tell my parents if I want to start contraception such as the pill? A: No we are a confidential service and that means we would not pass on any information unless we thought there was a real concern.

Q: If I tell you I self harm will you try to put me in hospital? A: We will not put you in hospital; however we will work with other services to make sure you get the best care possible. Self harm is a way of coping with troubles, not the most positive or constructive, but we would never force you to do anything.

Q: Can I get pregnant even if I haven�t started my period yet? A: Yes there is a chance of pregnancy so it is important to use protection if you are planning to or are having sex.

Q: Can my friend be with me when I get the service I'm in for? A: Initially you will be seen on your own as you may be asked personal questions. After this you can discuss with staff having a friend with you.

Q: I think I need to talk to someone but I don�t know what about. Can I still come in to talk? A: Yes you can, every young person is welcome at the Corner, even if they are unsure what they want to discuss. Come in and you can have a chat. One of the things we do is help you to get your priorities in order.

Q: I have been kicked out of my home and I don�t know where to get help. A: If you can come along to the Corner Drop-In, you will be able to discuss your situation with a worker who can support you to access temporary accommodation then support services. We can also talk to the housing support services on your behalf, and most important is to make sure you are safe.
