Im not entirely sure the age it is here, but I do believe that at ANY age, if you are in serious danger which may be life threatening then they will tell the relevant authorities, "Do no harm" I THINK, is a mantra or something they swear an oath to in med school so they must have your best interests at heart at all times.

16 years old. However, sometimes confidentiality will be respected at a younger age if you are deemed to have mature thought processes.
Over 16 have full confidentiality unless they believe there is a danger of serious harm. Under 16 have limited confidentiality. Between 13-15 in teenage advice zones they have confidentiality unless again they believe there is a danger of some harm.
