Why do we need host families?
Without our host families we would not have a Nightstop service. Our hosts make a young person's experience more comfortable when they are going through a very vulnerable stage of their lives. A host offers a safe bed for the night, somewhere for the young person to wash their clothes and shower, and a non-judgemental listening ear if they want to talk, and most importantly some head space while they plan their next steps.
What could it bring to you?
The experience of taking in a young person in need and supporting them while they overcome some of their difficulties can be very fulfilling. Many of our hosts are families whose children have left home, they have a spare room and wish to help young people less fortunate than themselves.
Watch our new video below showing how Nightstop hosting works, what it means to our young people and how rewarding it is for our volunteer hosts.
