I have a young man with me who has a major role to play in changing homeless people’s lives who look for help from the organization of Centrepoint UK, who have come to the aid of roughly one hundred and twenty-five thousand people between the ages of 16 and 25 since they were first founded in the year of 1969. Joe, firstly thanks for taking time out of your day to come and talk to us about this brilliant organization. What more can you tell us about it?         Well Josh, thank you for giving me the opportunity to tell the audience why I have one of the best jobs in the world, helping thousands of homeless young people each and every year. I haven’t been long in the job, but I can say with 100% confidence, I don’t know another organization that has had such a huge impact on an enormous number of homeless people’s lives then Centrepoint UK. Well, I guess it would be quite an honor seeing a person grow under your influence, especially with getting to know them from being homeless, at such a young and unimaginable age. Joe, you say it’s one of the best jobs in the world, so because of that, I highly doubt Centrepoint give much more than a home to these young people.     One of the things about the job is that we don’t just give young people homes, but we also help them on their way to fully independent living within 2 years, along with supporting these people with counselling and practical advice so that they can rebuild their confidence and start to look forward to the future again.    Wow, it’s a great thing that your organization spend so much time with each individual, and giving them exactly what it is they need to improve their lives drastically!     It’s not only that Josh, During the targeted 2 years, we provide these incredible people with the confidence and skills they need to find a job best suited to them, one that some know they’ve wanted since as long as they can remember, others who had no idea what they wanted to do after school or college. It’s not just the more advanced things in life these people need, so we also teach them the basic skills in life such as cooking and cleaning, to managing their money, which they’ll need in order to have a fully independent and successful way of living.     Incredible stuff! My only worry is how Centerpoint UK are able to fund something as big as this. Can you tell us about where the funds come from please Joe? For just 40p a day your room at Centrepoint will: Provide a warm, safe space where a young person can stay with Centrepoint for up to two years, or until they are ready to move on and lead independent lives From just 40p a day you can change a life by donating on our website www.centrepoint.org.uk, where you can find examples of the young people we help for yourself, and look up what exactly Centerpoint UK done to help them.    Joe, I can’t thank you enough for giving up your time to come in and talking to us about this wonderful organization, Centerpoint UK, And a big thaks to the audience for tuning in to listern to. I hoe you can find a spare 40p in your pocket each month to donate!
