Every four minutes another young person faces homelessness.

Pacing lonely, dangerous streets, desperately searching for safety.
This is no life for a young person.

Right now, thousands of homeless young people are in grave danger. Being forced into homelessness is a terrifying prospect for anyone – but young people are especially vulnerable to violence and exploitation on our streets. So please don’t delay, your gift could be lifesaving today.

Will you make this winter the turning point, by donating to Centrepoint? Your kindness could give a young person a stable home – often for the first time in their life. Instead of worrying about what to eat or where to sleep, they can start to put their lives back together, safe in the knowledge that we’ll be there for as long as they need us.

Anna's Story

At just 17, Anna was forced to leave home after the tragic loss of her younger sister. Her parents, overwhelmed with grief, accused Anna of not being there enough to support her. She had no choice but to wander the freezing streets in the depth of winter.

Thankfully, Anna called our helpline, where she received expert support to access emergency accommodation. Safe and warm, Anna was able to continue studying and look towards the future. 

"I was feeling helpless and overwhelmed. But Jack at the helpline put me at ease. He helped me get a roof over my head." - Anna
