Rooms Revolution

Did you know 184 young people are at risk of homelessness every day in England and Wales?

Thousands of young people all over the country are homeless and living on the edge.

Every day, these vulnerable young people are in terrible danger of assault, abuse, hunger and illness. But there’s
a way to help: Become a YMCA Roomsponsor today and save a future.

Become a YMCA Roomsponsor and save a future.

As a Roomsponsor, your regular donation can support young people to feel safe and hopeful again, with access to a room, mental health support and counselling, and even education and careers opportunities.

But changing a life full of challenges doesn’t happen overnight, so that’s why we need regular gifts from Roomsponsors to help people like Danni.

Danni’s story

“I got kicked out and was rough sleeping. Sometimes I slept in a car park and was badly attacked one night. I’ve been in YMCA for a month now. I’ve got a roof over my head, and lots of support. If I hadn’t come to YMCA I would have been dead. Literally I would have been dead, with no food, no money, no nothing.”

As a Roomsponsor you’ll get real, regular feedback from the young people who are turning their lives around, thanks to your regular donation.
You’ll also receive a welcome pack and thank you gift.
