Please help Gwent's homeless young

14/03/2008

In the borough of Blaenau Gwent we have young people aged 16-21 years who, through no fault of their own, have nowhere to live. They are helped and supported in facing challenges and difficulties in their lives by the Children's charity NCH - but they need help from people like you, who might have a spare room.

The NCH - founded in 1869 and known for many years as the National Children’s Home - help over 178,000 young people face difficulties such as poverty, disability and abuse through nearly 500 projects across the UK. And now, in Gwent, they urgently need people with a spare room who can provide accommodation as a "supported lodgings provider".

 

If you enjoy helping people, then offering accommodation to a young person will make a huge difference to their lives - and personal qualities are more important than your circumstances.

Excellent support and a financial incentive is offered. If you can help or would like more information, please contact NCH Network on  01495 311113. Please help us to help our local young people.
