Local service: No Limits
No Limits aim to help young people help themselves. No Limits is a charity offering free and confidential information, advice, counselling, advocacy and support to children and young people under the age of 26 in Southampton and Hampshire.
Young people can go to No Limits for free support on a wide range of issues including housing, homelessness, debt, employment, relationships, sexual health, mental health and substance misuse. Here, we highlight different aspects of their service that you may wish to access:
Social Prescribing Service
The No Limits Social Prescribing service is for people under 25 who are feeling stressed, worried, lonely or not enjoying things) and would like to access support, but aren’t sure how to, or where to start.
The Social Prescription Worker can meet with you for an informal chat and take time to listen and understand your needs. Together you can agree a wellbeing plan that focuses on your priorities and connects you with activities, events and organisations that can help you feel better, for example taking part in sport, creative arts, volunteering or peer support groups.
