The service, called ‘Talkzone’, allows people aged between 12 and 19 – and up to 25 for people with special educational needs or a disability – to talk to people for advice, guidance, support and information.
Lancashire County Council Cabinet Member for Children, Young People and Schools, Coun Susie Charles, said: “I’m glad we have Talkzone available to help. I’m told that we received 1,500 enquiries in December alone, on a range of issues.
