Here at CHS, preventing young people from becoming homeless is one of our key priorities and we run 4 specialist housing services throughout Cambridgeshire that provides accommodation and support to young 16-25 years olds who are homeless or are at risk of homelessness.

Our Young Futures Support Service, based in Cambridge, supports 15 young people and we have just secured a new home in Histon, just outside Cambridge, that will provide a home for 3 more young people.
