Welcome

Welcome to SNIP's new website for young people.
This new service offers information and advocacy for young people aged 14 to 24. The aim of the service is for you, the young person, to get support around any questions or concerns you may have about your own or someone else's disability.

On this website you can find more information about what this new service can do for you, find useful contacts for organisations that support young people with a disability, get quick answers to questions you might have about our service and about your rights, and you can contact Young People's Information & Advocacy Worker, Colin Young.
