Centrepoint is the national charity working to improve the lives of socially excluded, homeless young people. It provides a range of accommodation based services, including emergency nightshelters and short stay hostels, specialist projects for care leavers, ex-offenders, young single parents, foyers and supported flats and floating support services.

These accommodation services provide the foundations from which young people can start addressing some of the issues that lead to them becoming homeless, and developing the skills they need for a sustainable future. Centrepoint is a registered charity (registration number 292411). Click here to go to the Centrepoint website.

Many high profile individuals and companies support the work of the charity, including Prince William, who has chosen Centrepoint as his first patronage.

In the UK, 9:00 is a watershed moment for almost everybody. Conventionally it’s when work starts, post offices, shops and schools open and daytime TV begins. 8:59 is the moment before that change. A time that’s full of anticipation, potential and hope. Metaphorically, Centrepoint operates in that moment with young people: the moment before change.

£20 will house a young homeless person for a night, feed them and provide emotional support and advice while they are there. We automatically donate £20 of our fee when you place your order.
