We are a leading youth homelessness charity, working alongside some of the most vulnerable people in our Leicestershire community and help them grow. We believe every young person deserves a safe place to call home and the support they need to create lasting change in their lives.
We create supportive and inspiring places where young people and communities can belong, contribute and thrive. We do this through housing, care, support, advice, skills for life, theatre and cultural activities.
