Text Line Re-Launch Update

By John Pither - Added 8th of February 2010

Text Line has been successfully re-launched over the last three weeks to coincide with a four week advertising campaign on the local buses. CCM has also had the opportunity to do assemblies and workshops at Grace Academy on Text Line and issues facing young people today.

The service is avaiable Monday to Friday up until 10pm at night.

This means that advice and support for city teenagers is just a text message away. You can read more about the service on this web site and by following the link to the article that has recently appeared in the Coventry Telegraph - http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/news/coventry-news/2010/02/06/text-help-service-for-young-people-in-coventry-92746-25771489/

We have already been able to provide support to some teenagers experiencing bullying at school.

A commercial to promote the service is also available on You Tube and has been produced by Year 10 GCSE Media Studies Students at Grace Academy, Coventry.

CCM would welcome opportunities to speak about the project at local schools and other youth groups. Do get in touch at 024 7661 5931 or office@covcitymission.org.uk
