A FREE advice and support service for young people in Wiltshire is being launched this month.
The Line offers young people the chance to text, phone, email or webchat with qualified staff about anything from bullying concerns to events happening in their local area.
The service, run by Wiltshire County Council, is confidential and offers young people the chance to get support about a broad range of issues they may be dealing with.
Every 13 to 14 year old student in Wiltshire will receive a card with details of the free service open from 10am to 10pm, 365 days a year.
All schools in the county will be visited by youth workers from the county council before the summer holidays.
David Whewell, head of youth work at Wiltshire County Council, said: "Wiltshire is a rural county and The Line offers support to young people no matter where they are.
"We feel that it is important to have a wide range of opportunities for young people to access and The Line is a great addition to our youth work programme."
