Supporting young people’s mental health to fulfil their potential for a brighter future. An independent charity helping young people since 1977.

We opened our doors to young people in 1977 to help support them through difficult periods in their lives; mostly anxiety and family & relationships issues, but also anger, low self-esteem and low mood. We offer one to one counselling, family counselling, groupwork, young carers, and support for parents free of charge.

🎃 A little Halloween fun for our Young Carers! 👻

Yesterday, our Young Carers enjoyed a Halloween party filled with spooky fun, games, treats and plenty of opportunities to spend time together!

It was lovely to see everyone getting involved, enjoying themselves and making memories.

A big thank you to everyone who helped organise the day and made it possible!

At Off The Record, we recognise the importance of creating opportunities for young carers to take a break, connect with others and simply enjoy being young. 💙

Real voices. Real experiences.

Sometimes, having someone to talk to can make all the difference.

These are just a few reflections from young people who have accessed counselling with Off The Record.

If you’re a young person aged 11–25 across Southeast Hampshire, you don’t have to face things alone. Our support is free and confidential.

Creativity and wellbeing at our Young Carers Support Group 🎨

Our young carers have been getting creative by painting glass jars and filling them with positive affirmations as part of our Exploration Programme. 🫙

They’ve also been sharing their thoughts and feelings through VOICE poems for Mental Health Awareness. 📝

For World Mental Health Day, we asked some of our young carers what they do to support their mental health and wellbeing.

Sometimes, the little things can make the biggest difference.

A big thank you to our young carers for sharing their ideas and reminding us that mental health matters every day, not just on World Mental Health Day.
