Be the reason a young LGBTQ+ person has a safe place to sleep tonight

While many of us take to the streets to celebrate Pride, thousands of LGBTQ+ young people have nowhere safe to go. Rejected by their families simply for being who they are, they’re facing homelessness — often alone and scared.

At akt, we’re here to change that. As the UK’s national charity for LGBTQ+ youth homelessness, we support young people in crisis, providing emergency accommodation, access to food and supplies, and dedicated caseworker support.

But this Pride Month, rising hostility and rejection means demand for our services has never been higher. And we can’t do this without you.

Your donation could be the turning point for someone in crisis:
• £31 could provide emergency supplies to a young person coming off the streets
• £49 could fund a night of safe, warm accommodation
• £100 could give expert caseworker support to eight young people

No one should have to choose between a safe home and being themselves.

This Pride, don’t just show up — step up.
Give what you can today and be the reason a young LGBTQ+ person feels safe.

LGBTQ+ people are twice

as likely to experience homelessness in their lifetime. 1 in 3 trans youth will experience homelessness.

Donating is safe, secure and any amount you donate helps give LGBTQ+ youth a brighter future.
