YMCA Norfolk is looking for more Supported Lodgings Hosts and would be grateful for your help in sharing this opportunity within your church and wider networks.
Supported Lodgings provides young people at risk of homelessness with a safe, stable and supportive place to stay. By offering a spare room and a welcoming home environment, hosts can make a lasting difference to the life of a young person as they develop the skills, confidence and independence they need for the future. The service is built around the simple but powerful idea that a spare room really can change a life.
We've found that many great hosts come from church communities, seeing Supported Lodgings as a practical and rewarding way to live out their faith. While hosts do not need to be Christians, we know that many people within our churches have the heart, generosity and desire to support young people who need a safe place to belong.
We would love the opportunity to partner with your church to help raise awareness of the service and connect with potential hosts. This could include speaking briefly during a service, hosting an information stand, attending church events, or providing content for newsletters, social media and other church communications.
You can find out more about the service on our website: Supported Lodgings - YMCA Norfolk
If you would be interested in exploring how we can work together, please contact Richard and Violet on richard.sheppard@ymcanorfolk.org and violet.amedee@ymcanorfolk.org. Your support could help us find more caring hosts and create life-changing opportunities for young people across Norfolk.
