HELP SAVE CHRISTMAS FOR YOUNG HOMELESS PEOPLE IN GLOUCESTERSHIRE
SUPPORT OUR CHRISTMAS APPEAL
Gloucestershire Nightstop provides urgently needed services to young people facing homelessness. Together with local volunteers, just like you, we prevent young people from sleeping on the streets and help them get back on their feet. Discover how you can help a young person in your community.
Every year around 800 young people present as homeless in Gloucestershire. Nobody should be living on the streets, least of all our young people. With a small donation you can help us bring young people in from the cold, with a spare room you can help build a foundation for a stable and successful life.
“Young people are amazing and deserve a chance at life.”
– Jess, Nightstop Shortstop host
