Story
Centrepoint is the UK's leading charity for homeless young people. Together with our partners we provide housing and support for over 10,000 young people, aged 16-25, every year, helping them into work and a home of their own.
Young people sleep rough every night - in parks, stairwells, under bridges and worse. But there are thousands more you don't see - spending the night on buses, on sofas or in the homes of strangers. They're escaping abuse, violence, gangs and fear. Many are homeless because they can't live with their family, or they have no family. Last year 103,000 young people asked for help with homelessness.
Your support through The Virgin Money London Marathon will help Centrepoint give homeless young people a future.
