Can young people talk to youth workers in confidence?

Yes – in nearly all cases. The only exception is if workers have reason to believe a situation is so serious that either the young person themselves or another is at significant risk of being harmed, then they are required by law to inform other agencies who may decide to intervene. In such cases, the youth worker will advise the young person that this may happen.
