Looking back at 2024
On 29 February, we hosted our sixth annual National Youth Homelessness Conference at the Coventry Building Society Arena. We spent the day bringing together voices from across the sector to share the different ways we can collaborate to end youth homelessness.
The theme was ‘transitions’. The transition from child, to young person, to adult is a challenging time for all young people. However, for homeless young people, societal and structural challenges make this period even harder.
We heard from Hashi Mohamed, a barrister, broadcaster and author, who read from his new book and shared a rallying cry for us all to work together to tackle this crisis now and for future generations.
Throughout the day, there were breakout sessions covering everything from supported accommodation standards, disrupting exploitation, and making services more psychologically informed, to homelessness prevention, supporting young people facing immigration or asylum issues and how to help young people into employment.
This was topped off by the prevention and the Lived Experience Ambassador panels.
"The Lived Experience Ambassadors session was great, very insightful and interesting, very honest and inspirational to see a group of young people discuss their journey"
"Another great conference, thank you for organising this opportunity to come together'’
