Youth and Connexions Service


In April 2006 Suffolk Youth Services and Suffolk Connexions Service integrated to become Suffolk Youth and Connexions Service, which is part of the Children and Young People’s Directorate of Suffolk County Council.

The Youth and Connexions Service is one of several organisations within the County Council, along with the voluntary and community sector, working to provide help, support and guidance for all young people as part of integrated youth support (IYS).

To find details of local youth clubs and projects in your area, go to Young InfoLink, a new website publicising activities for young people.

Suffolk Youth and Connexions Service provides: 

  • youth clubs and activities for young people aged 13-19 and up to 25 for those with additional needs
  • drop-in centres for information, advice, guidance, support and counselling
  • support in schools (youth work and Connexions personal advisers)
  • detached youth work
  • outdoor and adventurous activities
  • a range of targeted projects
  • a website for young people at www.thesource.me.uk

We work in partnership with a wide range of agencies and organisations, particularly the voluntary sector. Visit www.onesuffolk.co.uk/youngsuffolk for further information.
