In January 1999, the need for a multi-agency approach to tackle inequalities in teenage health was identified. The Lomond LHCC received funding from the Scottish Executive, leading to the development of a series of questionnaires completed by local youth. Feedback indicated that over 80% preferred services run for young people and expressed concerns about confidentiality. This feedback led to community consultations and the launch of Youth2Youth services by February 2002, offering free, confidential health advice and workshops, while highlighting the necessity for improved partnerships and specialist services.
