20/20 Challenge
This year, at Wyre Forest & South Worcestershire Nightstop and Mediation Service, we are proud to celebrate 20 years of providing safe, emergency accommodation for young people in need. To mark this milestone, we are calling on our business community to support us in our mission: to end youth homelessness.
Our 20/20 Campaign is kindly supported by Specsavers Manufacturing & Distribution and our ambitious initiative is focussed on our shared vision of ending youth homelessness.
We are inviting 20 other local businesses to step forward right now, pledge their support and be part of creating lasting change by each pledging to raise at least £1,000 to help fund our vital services for young people facing homelessness.
The 20/20 campaign will feature fundraising events, community engagement initiatives and a December awards ceremony, all designed to drive meaningful change locally. By working together, we aim to give young people a second chance and the stability they deserve.
