Centrepoint<\/a> receives \u00a33M donation from Julia and Hans Rausing<\/a> to build homes for young homeless people in London and Manchester<\/h2>\n

The Independent Living Programme seeks to provide vulnerable 18-25-year-olds in or at risk of being homeless <\/a>a home and a job or an apprenticeship.<\/p>\n

Centrepoint<\/a> will use the donation to ensure a young person is only charged one-third of their salary as rent, in a bid to tackle the shortage of quality affordable homes<\/a>.<\/p>\n

For example, this would mean a 20-year old young person in Manchester who earns a minimum wage of \u00a36.56 per hour would only pay around \u00a3350 per month to live in a self-contained home.<\/p>\n

The charity also intends to work with ethical employers to ensure young people are earning above minimum wage, meaning someone in London earning \u00a318,000 per year would pay around \u00a3500 per month to live independently.<\/p>\n

‘End youth homelessness for the coming generation’<\/h3>\n

Julia and Hans Rausing Trust said: “We are delighted to announce our support for Centrepoint and its Independent Living Programme.<\/p>\n

“Centrepoint\u2019s ambition to end youth homelessness for the coming generation is a formidable task, but having seen the impact they have made on the lives of so many already, I have no doubt they will realise their ambition.<\/p>\n

“It is an honour to extend our support.”<\/p>\n

Sally Orlopp, director of Centrepoint\u2019s Independent Living Programme, said: “The difference this major donation will have on youth-homelessness in London and Greater Manchester is simply incalculable.<\/p>\n

“It will go a long way in touching the lives of so many people and on behalf of Centrepoint I cannot emphasise our gratitude enough for what the Julia and Han Rausing Trust have enabled.”<\/p>\n

The donation is the largest single donation Centrepoint has received in its 52-year history.<\/p>\n
