HELPFUL advice on youth issues, contraception and sexual health is up for grabs at a village centre.

Time 4 U sessions are held at Rubery Youth and Community Centre, in New Road, every Monday.

Between 3pm and 5pm, a youth inquiry worker and nurse host a drop-in clinic for all members of the community including schoolchildren, teenagers and young mothers.

The service is organised by Bromsgrove Youth Inquiry Service, based in Worcester Road, Bromsgrove and the county's sexual health department.

Welcome

The nurse can prescribe condoms, the oral pill and the morning after pill, and problems can be shared with the youth worker.

An inquiry service spokeswoman said: "We cater for people aged 25 and under but we will welcome anyone.

"The sessions have been running for around 18 months and are generally busy.

"Some people are not comfortable talking about sexual health with their family and we offer dedicated and friendly alternative."

Similar sessions are also held at the Multi Agency Resource Centre, in Humphrey Avenue, Charford, on Mondays, from 2.30pm to 5pm.
