Our work includes advice, family mediation, first contact and schools work - complementing the work of Nightstop and other Depaul UK projects.

Services:

1) Housing Advice

Alone In London can provide you with one-to-one sessions with one of our advisors, who will find out about your circumstances and talk you through your options.

We can also support you while you take the first steps to secure stable accommodation.

We do this by:

  • Providing information about hostels and other types of suitable housing
  • Referring to hostels and shared accommodation
  • Helping complete forms
  • Helping with claiming benefit entitlements
  • Speaking to other agencies on behalf of young people
  • Introducing young people to our other services, such as training and employment and family mediation
  • Signposting people to a range of external support services, depending on their circumstances

2) Mind Connect:

We provide a free counselling service called Mind Connect for young people aged between 11 and 25.

3) Mediation:

Alone in London provides mediation services for young homeless people.

Our Family Mediation service works to support young people and their families through periods of difficulty.
