Sleep Easy - Tackling the root causes of youth homelessness in your community

Story

Youth homelessness has many causes, from mental health, relationship breakdown, family difficulties, lack of training, education or employment and criminal behaviour. YMCA DownsLink Group works to tackles these issues, providing emergency accommodation, housing, mental health support, access to training and employment, and much more, to give young people the chance to belong, contribute and thrive.

The sleepout originally planned for 20th March was cancelled due to the Coronavirus but we are now sleeping out in our individual gardens and garages etc on 9th October - so if you haven't already please lend us your support!

Thank you
