St Basils Charity We help young people aged 16-25 at risk of, or experiencing homelessness in the West Midlands.

This week, we’re recognising Refugee Week and celebrating the strength and resilience of refugees who have rebuilt their lives and become part of communities across the UK.

At St Basils, we work with young people from a wide range of backgrounds, each with their own experiences and challenges. What unites them is the need for safety, support and the opportunity to build a positive future.

Everyone deserves a place where they feel they belong.

A huge thank you to Little Drops of Kindness for their second generous donation to St Basils! ❤️

Back in March, they donated individual bags filled with treats, toiletries, wellbeing items, notebooks, and positive affirmation quotes. Then last week, they returned with lots of pot noodles and microwave bags perfect for instant meals.

Pictured are co-founder Faith, alongside Henley and Elle with our Events Manager Holly. We want to say a special thank you for the trolley gifted to us. After Holly admired theirs during the first visit, they remembered and surprised us with one on their return.

Such a thoughtful gesture! Thank you, Little Drops of Kindness, for your continued kindness and support. ✨

How can universities better support students who have experienced homelessness?

Our latest Youth Voice Podcast, created in partnership with Birmingham City University, explores the barriers young people face in accessing and staying in higher education and the practical changes that can make a real difference.

Hear from members of our Youth Advisory Board, Sophia and Tadi, as they share their lived experiences of homelessness and education, alongside insights from BCU's Dean of Students, Melanie-Marie Haywood.

YAB and BCU have shone a light on what works, what needs to change, and how institutions can become more inclusive for young people navigating some of life's toughest challenges.

A huge thank you to Birmingham City University for their contribution!

We're pleased to have completed the National Housing Federation's Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) Data Tool.

By contributing our data, we're helping to build the most up-to-date national picture of equality, diversity and inclusion across the housing association sector.

As a youth homelessness charity, understanding who we are as an organisation helps us reflect on how we can continue to create an inclusive environment for our team and the young people we support.

We look forward to seeing the findings from the sector-wide report later this year.
