Mods- please move to the correct place, wasn't quite sure where to put this!
A very close friend of mine is in rehab, and I was wondering if anyone knows the laws around visiting? He really wants me to go and see him with some of our other friends on sunday, and I really want to go and see him too. He's dying, he has cancer, and getting off alcohol and drugs is his last hope so he can get treatment for the cancer. I was the reason he went to rehab in the first place so really want to be there to support him But since I'm under 16 would I be allowed to visit?
I've emailed them but they haven't got back to me. I was thinking of saying he's my dad if they don't allow friends under 16 (he'd go along with that, he has been like a dad to me for years anyway) but would they want to see evidence of this etc?
Thanks

He might have mentioned it, he sees me as a daughter so I'm not sure if he'd have spoken about it or not. I've looked on the website and there isn't anything, but I emailed them.. and I'm thinking since I'll be going with adults any way it should be alright. Hopefully!
Yep deffo.
