Depaul UK has more than 30 Nightstop projects across the UK, from Glasgow to Guernsey, funded in part by the People’s Postcode Lottery. It offers same-night emergency accommodation for 16- to 25-year-olds. In a survey last year, Depaul found that 55 per cent of young people who become homeless first leave stable accommodation due to a relationship breakdown. Almost 60 per cent became homeless when they were children.
