to young people and those who work with them on a wide range of subjects
including careers, education, rights and entitlements, employment matters,
leisure, sport, travel and European opportunities. Centres also provide a
variety of outreach activities bringing information to young people through
information points, publications, workshops, seminars, exhibitions, local
media and through schools and youth club work. Located around the
country, the centres are a first point of contact for a young person seeking
information on any subject of interest or concern.
