This film was part of YMCA Exeter’s Christmas Appeal 2024 which raised over £10,000.
A huge thank you to everybody who watched our 'Homelessness to Hope' video and to everyone who donated to our Christmas appeal. All the money raised will go to YMCA's Supported Housing projects, providing safe homes and support for vulnerable young people in Devon to get back on their feet.

YMCA Exeter supports young people coming out of homelessness, substance misuse and traumatic family circumstances and needing the support of a loving community to move forward. The wrap-around services provided by YMCA Exeter, with a person-centred approach, create an effective intervention that is life-changing for young people in Devon.

YMCA Exeter invites people across Devon to donate and help make a difference for young people, like Rob and Georgia, who are facing homelessness.

Directed by Isaac James, Produced by Lucy Pieterse and Laura Farrah
