BYHP's Mission Statement
"BYHP exists to support and assist Young People in finding and maintaining a safe home from which they may be assisted to determine their own opportunities in life".
What is BYHP
Over the past 17 years, BYHP has been working with Young People aged 16-25 who are homeless, inappropriately housed or at risk of becoming homeless in Oxfordshire. BYHP's head office is in Banbury and there are satellite projects working in West and South Oxfordshire, the Vale of White Horse and Oxford City.
In the past 12 months over 400 Young People have benefited from the work of the charity. Most of them have been made homeless through no fault of their own, fleeing violence, abuse or eviction. BYHP does not discriminate, nor will it abandon any Young Person who requests its help. It is a sad fact that there has been year on year rise in the number of Young People seeking help.
The charity is staffed by qualified and experienced workers supported by volunteers. They offer a range of services through one to one advice and information, outreach work in schools and youth centres, family mediation, education and training opportunities as well as helping find accommodation. Other work includes finding longer term accommodation, support for particularly vulnerable Young People such as those with mental and physical disabilities, along with the prevention of homelessness.
