What is Connexions?

Connexions Kent & Medway is a service providing free impartial and confidential advice, guidance, support and personal development services to all 13-19 year olds, and to those up to 25 who have learning difficulties and disabilities.

The Connexions Kent & Medway service is delivered by specially trained Personal Advisers (P.A.s) who are based in schools, colleges, at Connexions Access Points, and in a range of community settings.

It's not just about careers and learning. Our Personal Advisers can help you with all sorts of issues such as jobs, training, housing, money, relationships and health.

We can also help you develop your talents and interests, for example through volunteering, community projects, the arts, sport or other local leisure activities.

The success of Connexions Kent & Medway depends on the involvement of young people. Through our Youth Board we listen to their views about the delivery of our service, and have a Youth Charter which outlines young people’s priorities.

We also work closely with a number of partners such as schools and colleges, employers, and the public, private, voluntary and community sectors, and encourage parents and carers to get involved in the service.
