About our charity
Independent People provide housing, support and advice to young people aged between 16 and 25 in Bristol and South Gloucestershire. <p> We exist to support young people to build independent lives. We do this by helping them find (and keep) a safe, stable home. We also offer non-judgmental support and advice on counselling, training and help finding jobs. Most young people are referred to us by the Local Authorities having presented themselves as homeless, we run Bristol's only emergency 24 hour accommodation for young people at St George's House. <p> We are doing more and more work in trying to prevent homelessness through projects such as Inside Out which helps young people resettle after prison, and our through our peer education project which invites young people who have experienced homelessness to go into schools and talk to their peers about the realities of leaving home in an unplanned way.
