The Youth Tenant Involvement group (YTI) & Strategic Housing (Homeless) team are in full support to raise money for this worthwhile charitable organisation.
YTI have had the privilege of interviewing an ex service user who explained his journey from being homeless and having the support from hyh. He is now a volunteer working for the charitable organisation lending his support and experience to young homeless individuals.
The Strategic Housing (Homeless) team continue to give their support by working in partnership with hyh.
hyh is an independent charity dedicated to supporting the young homeless of Hemel Hempstead and other surrounding Hertfordshire areas.
We were established in 1998, to help young people secure and maintain appropriate accommodation by providing information, support and help in a crisis. hyh works with other agencies in Hemel Hempstead such as DENS and Rent Aid and throughout Hertfordshire towards improving local provision and preventing homelessness.
We believe that safe and secure accommodation is the essential foundation from which young Hemel Hempstead people can achieve a successful independent life. Our mainstream services are Advice and Information, Floating Support and Crashpad and we have a number of other services which support and complement this work in areas such as Health, Mediation and Education. We are constantly exploring new ideas in an effort to achieve our goal of preventing homelessness in Hemel Hempstead.
"Every year we help over 2000 young people get their lives back on track..."
