Did you know that Connexions Bedfordshire has gone local?
Since October 2004, the Connexions Service has ‘gone local’. We have employed more staff and we can be accessed close to where you live. We have also listened to what you want to get out of your Connexions Service.
Connexions is a national information, advice, guidance and support service for young people between 13 and 19 years of age. We have a team of friendly, experienced Personal Advisers who are ready to help you. We work in all the local upper schools, colleges and also in the local community. We can give you advice on issues such as careers, college courses, jobs, volunteering, relationships, bullying and personal development. You can come to see us if you want to talk through your ideas, you are looking for inspiration or just want to chat.
We also have a database of jobs which you can apply for. They can be accessed on our database www.connx-jobs.org.uk or you can look at them at one of our ‘Access Points’. So, if you are leaving school this summer or are looking for work now, either log on or drop in to see us at one of our ‘Access Points’. We also have an on-line library which has links to all sorts of information from self harm, to Education Maintenance Allowance to Careers in Construction. So have a look at www.connx.org.uk/Connx4U.
