The funding will provide support for young people who find themselves homeless offering shelter and support to around 250 people a year. They operate their own hostel and work with young people in council private and social housing providing practical advice and training to help their tenancy be a success.

This programme will deliver 1:1 mediation sessions for young people at risk of homelessness and their families. As a result, young people will have improved relationships, a lower risk of homelessness and stronger mental health and wellbeing.

We empower care leavers; we would like to make sure that they have a safe place where they can prepare themselves with the necessary skills to help break the cycle of homelessness.

Roundabout operates a 27 bed hostel, but for some young people with significant mental health and/or drug and alcohol problems, this accommodation is not appropriate. Their support needs are too high and they often end up back on the streets. We want to recruit a new specialist Housing Support Officer who will work with these extremely vulnerable young people, placing them into their own flat and then pulling together a network of support services around them to keep them housed. This “Housing First” model has had proven success elsewhere and we feel will best meet the needs of these young people, enabling them to break their cycle of homelessness. With this funding we will stop young people sleeping rough.

We are seeking funding for a new build project to house and support 6 young people aged 16-21 who would otherwise be homeless. In October 2016 we opened a group living scheme at a property that was originally set up to house students and whilst the property is of a decent standard it is really cramped and has one shared bathroom between the six young people and staff. We hope to create a new build project that is suitable to house these young people that have gone through very challenging childhoods. The new project will be in Sheffield and we are working with Sheffield City Council to identify appropriate land. Living in this new building will have an amazing effect on the lives of the young people, giving them quality accommodation that has en-suite bedrooms and training area will mean so much to all involved.

The Roundabout Mediation Service will deliver drop-in sessions and mediation for young people who are at risk of, or experiencing, homelessness. As a result, less young people will be homeless and relationships with family will improve.
