Do you have the Community Spirit?

It's Your Choice Its Your Choice is charitable organisation providing Information, Advice and Counselling services for young people aged 12 to 25 years living in the New Forest.

 

It operates by providing a number of services for young people aimed at meeting the Children’s Act five outcomes to ensure young people can be healthy, stay safe, Enjoy and Achieve, Make a positive Contribution and Achieve Economic Well-Being.

 

These services include a drop-in provision that young people can access without the need for an appointment, a counselling service delivered across the New Forest, anger management, sexual health provision, drug and alcohol early intervention and Open Doors, a rent deposit scheme for homeless young people.

 

All services are free of charge, confidential and non-judgemental.

 

The main drop-in is in Totton with satellite services at Fordingbridge and Holbury. The majority of service delivery is achieved through the use of volunteer workers who staff the drop-ins and deliver the counselling.

 

We have employed staff who deliver extensively in schools and in partnership working alongside Connexions, Youth Service, Sexual Health practitioners and Mental Health.

 

As a registered Charity we have an Executive Management Committee, who, as elected members, are responsible for making decisions that maintain the high standard of services that are offered to young people. 

 

Currently our committee has 7 members; this does need to be boosted particularly by people able to commit the time and energy to managing and driving the agency forward.

 

Can you offer us?

  • an interest in the well-being of young people
  • an open non-judgemental attitude
  • time every other month for an evening meeting lasting two hours
  • commitment of two days per month
  • commitment and enthusiasm
