Personal advisors
A Personal Adviser is the person who works with you to help you find any support you might need.
Who?
A Personal Adviser can be someone who has experience in things like youth work, careers advice or health. Some are especially recruited to work as an advisor, whereas some are drawn from other organisations that already work with young people, so they really know their stuff. There are also specialist personal advisors who work in specific areas that that might be more important to you.
