About Us

Newham

The Newham Connexions Service operates out of five Connexions One-Stop-Shops located throughout Newham, as well as in the places you study. So wherever you live or go to school or college in Newham, Connexions is close by.

As well as giving you access to our PAs, who'll help you in any way they can, our One-Stop-Shops are also run by young people. They will be your first point of contact when you walk through the door.

We encourage young people to get actively involved in the Connexions service. We are also closely involved with other local young people's forums, such as the Youth Council, which provides young people with a say in how Newham Council provides it services.

However you get involved with Connexions you can be sure of our total commitment to helping and supporting you. We won't walk away from your situation until you're happy that any problem or issue you may have has been resolved 100%.
