Scotland is facing a homelessness crisis, with more people presenting as homeless than ever. Cyrenians, through over 60 projects, aims to prevent homelessness by supporting those at risk before they reach crisis.

Through Cyrenians' prevention and early intervention work, individuals like Ieuan can find stability. Ieuan, aged 17, joined Cyrenians’ Green Skills Centre in 2023 after leaving school, unsure of his future. “I hated school and left as soon as I could. But after visiting Cyrenians through a HYPE course, I loved it right away. I was antisocial, but my people skills have improved. Now I help train other young people. I’m happy, that’s the biggest change.”

Ieuan has found confidence, happiness, and a passion for advocating for young people through his time with Cyrenians. With your support, Cyrenians can expand their outreach and support even more people like Ieuan.
