Our Mission

We're working to end youth homelessness on a national scale to give vulnerable young people a future.

Before EYH was established, there was no UK-wide organisation for helping homeless young people.

End Youth Homelessness is a UK-wide movement of local charities that have joined forces to tackle youth homelessness together. It provides a national platform to raise awareness, share experience and generate voluntary income.

The funds we raise help our members to increase capacity, services and sustainability in extremely challenging times. Our member charities house and support over 40,000 young people facing homelessness.

Our Values

Each of our member charities work in their own way to meet the needs of local young people, whilst all sharing the same core beliefs that:

Housing

Every young person has the right to a home

Education

Every young person needs the independence that an education and a job provides

Support

Every young person needs a stable support network and access to services that can prevent them from becoming homeless

HRH Duke of Cambridge

5 years ago, The Duke of Cambridge challenged one of our member charities Centrepoint to end youth homelessness nationally. Centrepoint knew they couldn't do it alone so they joined forces with homeless charities across the UK to build a national movement and End Youth Homelessness was born.
