Your Place is a charity dedicated to solving homelessness in east London, one person at a time. We’re here to offer hope, a home and a healing place to grow, where people who’ve lost their homes can get the individual support they need within a safe, caring community. We work closely with each person who comes through our doors, guiding them to meet their own needs through one-to-one and peer-led support. With specialist teams and a compassionate community around them, residents make their own journey to independent living — and to a better place. Your Place is based in the East London borough of Newham, which has the highest levels of homelessness in the country. The demand on our services is increasing, and each year, we support hundreds of individuals on their journey away from homelessness for good through accommodation, personalised support related to education and training, health and wellbeing, employability, budgeting and securing and sustaining a tenancy. "Your Place is more than just a roof over my head; it's a community that has given me hope, support, and a chance to start a new chapter in my life." - Halima

RESET MH is a registered UK charity (no: 1194051) that provides free mental health services to adults and young people from the black community, through the provision of mental health first aid training, peer support services, individual and group therapy services.

All our sessions are also delivered by black qualified/registered professionals who are from the communities we serve. We have worked in collaboration with the community to provide services that truly meet their needs and serve them. The black community has been heavily affected by the pandemic financially and also with the issues with the cost of living. Due to this we are looking to looking to provide food support to low income families in London to support them during festive season and beyond. There are no charges for any of our services as we want to remove barriers of cost faced in these communities and also make is more accessible. We don’t currently collect surplus food from other retailers and this is a new service we want to provide to the communities we support to ensure that they receive food they need.
