For 30 years, Southend YMCA’s Newlands Supported Accommodation has been more than just a roof over young people’s heads. We have provided a safe, supportive home for thousands of vulnerable 18–25-year-olds facing homelessness, helping them rebuild their lives. With space for up to 35 residents, our dedicated team works closely with each individual to develop vital skills, confidence, and independence.
Your support enables us to continue turning uncertainty into hope, giving young people the tools to build brighter, lasting futures. Together, we’re not just providing accommodation — we’re transforming lives.
Charities pay a small fee for our service. Learn more about fees
