The UK has the highest rates of teenage pregnancy in Western Europe; all the UK countries have broadly similar rates. In Scotland around 43 per 1000 girls between 13 and 19 became pregnant in 2001. This rate has been relatively stable since 1993 although the pattern has changed with increases observed in the poorest areas.

Changes believe the way forward is to educate young women by looking at how they communicate and view themselves.

By focusing here we encourage self examination, route out restricting personal beliefs and limiting thinking processes which chips away at confidence, self worth and can lead young women into having under-age and unprotected sex as a way of seeking validation and acceptance.

When we work on the removal of the limiting behaviour and create a more empowering mind-set, this in turn enables our young women to build self esteem, self belief, combat teenage pregnancy / STI’s, but more importantly, take advantage of the opportunities available to them and not become a statistic.

Workshops and one-to-one sessions provide young women with a range of tools and techniques to not only help them discover new confidence, but to feel more self-aware and allow self belief to flourish.

We encourage young women to view their future with fresh eyes, set goals – and achieve them.
