- Experienced or are worried about family members abusing them
- Experienced or are worried about people making them do things they don’t really want to do

Our service also works with young women who want to explore & express issues which they feel are affecting them. These could be:
- Conflict at home/ school and in relationships
- Body image
- Questioning sexuality/ building positive relationships
- Bullying
- Issues related to social media
- Self-care and coping with distress
- Issues and support with social care

Although some of the stuff we hear from young women can be really sad and difficult, our work is also filled with hope as we see how strong, capable, smart and creative young women can be as they navigate challenging situations in their lives.
