A service for young people in Swindon to access support around drug and alcohol issues.
Who Are They?
Uturn are a team of specialist workers from a range of different backgrounds who have experience of working with young people and their families. We can meet you in all sorts of different places, wherever you feel comfortable. They believe that young people have the right to honest, rational and balanced information. There is no judgement and the sessions are confidential (unless there are safeguarding concerns).
Their job is not to tell you not to do something and they just want you to make informed and safe decisions. Uturn follow safeguarding procedures.
