Centrepoint's most ambitious programme to date, creating homes, jobs and training with the support young people need when they are ready to live independently. Our vision is bold and will require over £16m investment to deliver the homes we need as the first step.
“By delivering our Independent Living Programme, which links accommodation with jobs and rent with income, and promoting it for other organisations to deliver, we make housing truly affordable for young people."
“In a time of growing uncertainty and with unemployment on the rise, it is vital that young people have a safe place to call home and a secure job to financially sustain themselves. It is an honour to be part of a programme making this a reality and ensuring young people are given the opportunity to fulfill their potential.”
"The Independent Living and CP Works programmes represent fresh thinking and provide a creative solution, which can go some way to improving the prospects of those that need it most, whilst establishing a workable model that can be significantly expanded in future."
