I am supporting YMCA Ripon because youth homelessness is often hidden, and although some people do sleep rough on the streets, many with no fixed home will find themselves sleeping on a friend’s floor, sofa or in a car.
In the past few years at Ripon YMCA we have worked with many young adults who have slept in tents, sheds, on kitchen floors, on sofas, airbeds or outdoors.
The main reason young people become homeless is due to relationships with family or a partner breaking down. Many of our young people have mental health issues and suffer low mood and lack of motivation.
