Yardley House works with young vulnerable homeless people from the age of 16 to 25. We offer a safe place to stay and support them in moving on into their own tenancy. Every year over 1200 young people are housed in St Basils' 29 supported accommodation schemes. For some young people, this includes their young children as well. We have a range of prevention, accommodation and support services to help young people regain the stability they need to rebuild their lives, gain skills, training and employment and maintain tenancies. Our aim is always to help them overcome the 'cycle of homelessness' so that they can go on to experience a bright, and fulfilling future. We work to make sure they never return to a state where they are at risk of homelessness again.

Betel is a safe and inspiring place where men and women can come free of charge and overcome drug and alcohol addiction. We're helping addicts in 24 countries and 100 cities. Here in the UK, we have around 280 men and women in our care and we've begun a welcoming new centre in Motherwell. Betel is a self funding, non profitable charity. We do not receive government funding - instead, we teach new skills such as gardening and tree surgery, upholstery, and furniture restoration. In turn, this generates an income and empowers our recovering addicts to pay for their own recovery. This strengthens their self-worth, confidence and restores a sense of hope for the future. I myself was an addict and alcoholic. I entered the doors of Betel in 2006, lost, frightened, underweight, and with no hope for the future. But the love of people and the generosity of others encouraged me that life could be better. Ten years down the line, I'm drug free and alcohol free. What's more, I'm now married and I'm continuing to live and work with those who are less fortunate. We're a large charity but very small in comparison to the need there is out there within our country. We have and will continue to see men and women break free from addiction. To achieve this, we need your help! We hope to accommodate 20 to 25 adults here in Motherwell centre and will hopefully open another where there's great need. Eventually, our vision is to have a centre in every city so we can empower more people to overcome their addictions. All our residents are peer led by volunteers like myself that have gone through and overcome addiction. They know they aren't alone and can achieve what they set their hearts and minds on, as we have.

Surplus food we collect from our Neighbourly providers is re-distributed in the community in several locations of Solihull and surrounding areas. Our good cause is supporting people living in poverty, refugees, and asylum seekers. We provide ongoing support to people in need through a number of initiatives, including free English language classes for refugees and surplus food distribution for people living in poverty, among many others. Our distribution model does not involve and has never involved any charges. It is not associated with the Berry's Cafe or Newland's Bishop Farm side of the business. - Education/training - The advancement of health or saving of lives - Disability - Elderly/old people - People with disabilities - Provides services - Provides advocacy/advice/information - Refugees and asylum seekers support - Prevention of poverty
