YOUNG people who want some extra help as they advance into the adult world can contact a social enterprise.

Gill Boydell, director for Biggleswade, Sandy and the outlying towns and villages, said: “I will be working in Sandy Upper School and Stratton and I will also be available for those who have left school.

“I have got a number of places that I can meet people such as libraries and youth centres as meets their needs.

“We are also working closely with the job centre.”

Each young person is given an overall assessment and if they have any issues that need resolving they can also be referred to other agencies.

Gill can be phoned or texted on 07903 202703 or emailed at [email protected]

The service is free and anyone aged 13 to 19 can get in touch.
