Story

I am fundraising in June for YMCA Burton in their ACTIVElyYMCA challenge to complete 50 miles in 30 days!

There 'Why’ and how your money helps

At YMCA Burton, we are a lifeline for those facing homelessness and also for thousands of individuals and families living in crisis across East Staffordshire. However, we cannot do what we do without your help. Support us by getting active in June and raising both awareness and vital funds to help us ensure that we can continue delivering our key services to those who desperately need them in our local community.

Homelessness is everywhere and doesn’t discriminate, whether it be rough sleeping on the streets or hidden homelessness through sofa surfing. This is why we are here to support people from all corners of the borough 365 days of the year, 24/7 and the reason why we won’t ever give up.

If you have a couple of minutes, it’s worth taking some time to watch this powerful video highlighting the incredible work that we do around the clock, supporting thousands of individuals and families each year who are living in crisis:

Homelessness can happen to any one of us. It has no boundaries and lives & circumstances can change very quickly. No one wakes up & decides to be homeless, there are many reasons & life changing moments that can lead to sleeping rough on the street or sofa surfing night after night. We help people to change lives through a breadth of vital services. We provide homeless outreach, rough sleeper provision, emergency bed space, accommodation, family mediation, counselling, community foodbank, lunch club, support & engagement, complex needs support and have a number of furniture stores providing low cost quality furniture and new white goods. Thanks for supporting us & helping to raise much needed income. The impact of COVID-19 has been felt by everyone. Lives have changed, demand for our services has increased and our income has been significantly affected. We could not continue to do what we do without the help of others. Your help is never more needed than now - Thank you
