Your rights
If you are over 13 years old, you have a right to confidentiality, the same as any adult, and can book and attend GP appointments by yourself.
Obviously it’s great to have someone to talk to for support but if you don’t, you can go to your GP or school nurse who can provide great support. You can find out more about your rights in healthcare from this handy guide created by the NHS England Youth Forum.
