Depaul UK London

Yasmina, a university student who'd been living in her car outside Newcastle city centre when she first met Nightstop hosts Mark and Elisabeth, travelled back to the couple’s home in Whitley Bay last month to reunite as part of a package for the BBC.
Now with a full-time job in the charity sector and volunteering as a client ambassador, Yasmina’s new life is a million miles from the desperate situation she was in when she first met Mark and Elisabeth over a year ago.

North Shields homeless student reunites with her 'lifesavers' Mark and Elisabeth from Whitley Bay housed Yasmina for a night when she found herself homeless.

Demand for our Nightstop service has surged by more than 55% across the network, compared to the same time last year. That’s why today we’re launching an urgent appeal.

This winter, thousands of young people in the UK will have no safe place to live or regular bed to sleep in. Every day, more than 350 young people become homeless. Nightstop provides a warm welcome and a safe place to sleep for young people in crisis. Trained and vetted volunteer hosts make sure they also get a hot meal, access to washing facilities, and the listening ear of someone who cares.

In this blog, our CEO Alexia Murphy explains why we urgently need your support to keep Nightstop running and keep more young people safe and off the streets this winter: https://bit.ly/40GQacz
