"My childhood was not the best start for me. I felt that I had to grow up too soon. My younger years were not the greatest and this impacted my future too. I struggled a lot with school life and home life too, physically and mentally." Skye faced homelessness at the age of 16 due to a lack of family support. Thankfully, Skye received care and support from LandAid’s charity partner, Hope into Action UK. They helped her onto a path towards a positive future. One which provided stability and a home.

A hole in one! Pexhurst Services Limited's annual golf day has raised £2,000 for #LandAid. ⛳ For five consecutive years they have hosted a fantastic golf event that has brought together over 90 property professionals from across the industry to help raise funds to #EndYouthHomelessness. LandAid simply could not deliver our ambitious 10,000 bedspace targets without the support of partners like Pexhurst. A massive thanks to everyone who could attend and make the event possible, specifically Kayla Vella - BA (Hons) ACIMand Nick Tagliarini MCIM BA (Hons) MSc for their support. #FridayHero #TogetherWeCan

LandAid's innovative Build to Rent pathfinder is going from strength to strength as the empty units have began to fill to support young people. Our pathfinder initiative seeks to create tenure-blind BTR flats for young people facing homelessness who are ready to take their next step towards independence. Some BTR firms have already signed up to back the initiative, including Grainger and Realstar, who have pledged to offer units in Salford, Sheffield and Leeds. We hope to have 30 spaces available throughout 2024 and 2025. If your business would like to be the change, email us at [email protected]

It's the heart of everything we do 💙... but what do we actually mean when we say #EndYouthHomelessness? It is impossible to guarantee that no young person will ever experience homelessness. Instead, we aim to ensure that everything is done to prevent homelessness, and where this is not possible, such experiences should be rare, brief and non-recurring. Discover how we plan to achieve this: https://lnkd.in/eJ6x2Jd8

Last week we celebrated our most successful North West Gala Dinner to date. Together our northern supporters raised an incredible £47,771 for #LandAid! The money raised will support the design and construct of new move-on homes where young people are given a space to call their own- a home with access to support works to help give them the independent living skills to stay in education or employment. Thank you to all attendees, organisers, and supporters for making the night a success. And finally, special thanks to our sponsors MCR Property Group, SIP Car Parks Ltd, VINCI Building UK and A E Yates Ltd. #EndYouthHomelessness #FridayHeroes

There are multiple ways to donate to #LandAid. Our Pro Bono Programme allows supporters to donate their skills and expertise to support charity projects across the nation. We recently secured free strategic and management advice from an independent consultant, Renata Heranova, for a Nottingham homelessness charity, Emmanuel House Support Centre. Thanks to Renata, the charity was able to realise their ambitions and establish a new 5-year business plan, to establish long-term sustainability in the face of challenges that continue to impact the rates of homelessness.
