What are they?

Connexions Access Points are places where you can access face-to-face support from Connexions advisers.

Connexions Centres

Offices in town centres where you can get information and find out about jobs, education and volunteering and training opportunities. You can also access a variety of other information and support about topics like housing, drugs and sexual health.

Hours vary, and you may need to make an appointment. You can see the areas each centre covers on the map opposite, but don't worry if you're not sure which is your Connexions Centre, you can visit whichever is most convenient for you.
