Give the Gift of Coorie*

This Christmas, your gift will help a young person access warmth, safety and support. 

Donate to Scotland's leading youth homelessness charity

*Coorie [küri] | verb | Scottish: To snuggle in and find comfort.

Scotland has declared a housing emergency. Every year, more young people are being made homeless than the year before. They are battling loneliness, fear, and financial hardship. They are becoming trapped in temporary accommodation, sofa-surfing, or with no shelter at all.

For these young people, there is nowhere to coorie in this winter.

With over 9,000 young people in Scotland affected by homelessness last year alone, our work is more important than ever.

Every year we help more than 1,000 young people leave homelessness behind so they can start building better futures.

We help young people rejected by their families for who they are, young people leaving care and starting out on their own, young people living far from their families and the homes they were born in.

Your gift will help young people find warmth, safety and the support they need this winter — because nobody should be left out in the cold.
