LandAid are proud to award a grant of £31,604 to help fund Carlisle Key’s first accommodation project. The money will support the renovation and conversion of a former vicarage into a hostel for twelve young people at risk of homelessness, as well as an office and a drop-in centre.

The impact

The new Carlisle Key Accommodation will provide a safe, warm home for twelve vulnerable young people, along with 24-hour support from a key worker.

The new drop-in centre will also enable the charity to expand support to young people not living there, with showering, laundry and cooking facilities available to all in need.
