Young people who were struggling to get by, often need somewhere they can go during the day and just be!

 Daystop is our new service, where help, advice and support are available at any time during the day. 

We have created a day centre at our new premises so that young people have a calm and secure environment in which to stay during the day. Many young people attending Daystop are also using the Nightstop service, though this is not a requirement. This service is run by our Daystop support worker, who assists young people throughout the day and helps them to access wellbeing and enrichment services as well as the opportunity to learn practical life skills.

Daystop operates from 9.00am to 5.00pm on weekdays and food, drink and a warm welcome is always available. Daystop has multiple facilities such as a laundry room, bathroom and shower, kitchen, access to computers and charging points, as well as two dedicated spaces for young people.  

MAKE A REFERRAL

Daystop is available to young people aged 16-25 years old in Gloucestershire, who are homeless or at risk of homelessness.

WHAT OUR YOUNG PEOPLE HAVE TO SAY

“Go add up Nightstop as they are really helpful and understanding people who will help you every step of the way I would definitely recommend Night stop is the best company to go to for a safe space.”

Having someone else to talk to and being able to turn to people who understood or might have been in the same situation.

a chance at a peaceful place to do coursework

‘The staff are helpful, and they actually listen to you and what you have to say. They are not patronising and they make it easier for you when a lot of things are going on. They make your time here actually enjoyable.’

They can help more than you think

I’ve got my own house now, that I pay for, it’s a house share but I pay around £700 a month, as obviously I’ve got a job now, so I’ve been living there for about five months now, before that I was living with my mates Nan and Grandad, they helped me and I paid them rent. I stayed with them for about six months, but obviously now that I’ve got a job again, a decent job, I can live by myself.

They can help straight away, support you and they make you feel safe.

Staff are very supportive and treat everyone equally

Thank you for all the help, Thank you for all the support

Nightstop helped build my confidence up and helped my self esteem.

When I was homeless, I was in a low place but now I’ve come back kicking and screaming and stronger than I was
