Homelessness is often hidden on our society. Young people who have no fixed home will often find themselves sleeping at a friends house on a sofa or the floor.

In the past year we have seen young people staying in tents, cars, sleeping on a kitchen floor and in a shed, with many more "sofa surfing".

The YMCA can help - We can give young people a safe place to stay and provide support to promote independence.

By taking part in our sleep easy campaign you can raise money through sponsorship to stay out for 1 night. Sleep on a sofa, in a tent, car or even make your own cardboard shelter at our Sleep Easy site to raise money and awareness of young people and homelessness.
