A safe place to live
Everyone needs a safe place to live.
But right now, as the UK faces a perfect storm of cost-of-living, housing and mental health crises, thousands of people stand to lose that place. And a lot more besides.
In London alone, one person becomes homeless every 10 minutes. A person not too different from you or me.
Ag
"I became so unwell, I was no longer able to support myself. I ended up sleeping in Canning Town station… I was dehydrated and worried I’d miss my operation."
At Your Place, NHS support worker Ag found the personalised care she needed to recover in a safe place. Now she’s beginning to rebuild her life helping others.
Dulce
"Gardening brings up the person I was before I became homeless. This place is happiness."
Grandmother Dulce was living on the streets for years before getting the support she needed. Now at Your Place, she takes a leading role in cultivating the community garden.
New Name. Same Mission
We are moving forward with a new name, but our mission “to build hope, enable lasting change and end homelessness for people in east London” remains the same. Our bold new identity will allow us to make an even bigger impact and build more support so that we can continue to solve homelessness one person at a time.
