Young People
If you are homeless, sleeping rough or facing a housing crisis, contact your local council housing options team to find out what help they can offer.
Call 999 if you are under 18 or need emergency help
All referrals to Alabaré young people services have to come through the local authority, or you may self-refer to some of the homes. If you need additional support or advice, please get in touch today.
Access Streetlink
If you are currently sleeping rough, you can make an alert with StreetLink. Your alert will be passed on to your local outreach team who will try to find you at the location you give us.
An outreach team will help as soon as they can – but please don’t wait. Seek other help if you can.
