The cost of living crisis means young people are facing difficult decisions about buying food or paying bills. With energy costs predicted to increase by 65% in October and 4% in January, alongside inflation of 11% in November, more young people will be pushed into poverty this winter. Combined with youth unemployment and mental health crises, homelessness is anticipated to rise. That’s why we’re asking for your support now - so young people don’t have to choose between heating and eating.
These support initiatives ensure that: Young people who are struggling with their mental health can access quality support with a therapist they connect with, without facing long wait lists or costly sessions. Young people who are struggling financially can access essential items tailored to them. Supermarket vouchers can provide fresh food, homeware, childcare items and medication. Phones and sim cards can reduce loneliness, help with looking for jobs and support accessing other services.
