Our #HomeForChirstmas campaign is all about sharing the inspiring success stories of the homeless & vulnerable Young People we support. This year we are raising funds for our two trauma-informed projects.

Working My Way Up – 6 months of coaching, mentoring, and resources to help Young People overcome barriers to enter meaningful education, training and employment.

Your Voice, Your Choice – delivers counselling, therapy, and mediation to address the root cause of trauma to improve mental health and resilience.

 

Together, they empower Young People to overcome barriers and build stable, productive, independent futures.

This year, we have teamed up with the Big Give making your donations eligible for matched funding! Meaning your donations will make double the impact, if you donate between the 2nd - 9th of December.

So without any further ado, meet...

We taught tenancy skills and budgeting, held safe, non-judgmental conversations about sexuality and name change.

We accompanied them to interviews and appointments, supported volunteering at Air Cadets. Provided emotional coaching that built resilience and practical independence.

Now Quinn feels happier and more confident after coming out, is an Air Cadet instructor, accepted for a PCSO role

They manage bills independently, maintain healthy relationships, and mentors others using their lived experience.

Quinn became homeless, sofa-surfed with friends, and arrived anxious and inexperienced in independent living.

They struggled with mental health, questioned identity, and feared rejection while looking for a sense of belonging.

Take a pause in your day and join us for Press:Pause - a short, guided mindfulness session led by our in-house Young People’s Counsellor and Mental Health Practitioner.

✨This afternoon session offers a gentle space to step away from the pressures of the workweek and reconnect with calm, clarity, and presence.

You’ll experience around 20 minutes of guided mindfulness, with a short introduction and close included. ⏸️💖

Whether you're new to mindfulness or simply need a reset, this is the perfect step into the festive period 🤗
