Imagine the hopelessness you'd feel if you couldn't have a safe space to go to. Natasha lived that, before she got in touch with Llamau - "Without the support, I'd be dead." Your support helps us run safe spaces for domestic abuse survivors. Help us, help them🫶

Llamau is daring to imagine a world without homelessness and we are determined to achieve it.
About us
Our mission is to end youth homelessness and homelessness for women in Wales. That’s because the causes of homelessness for young people and women are different, and we therefore need specific solutions. Our mission is a big ambition and to some people it might seem impossible. But at Llamau, we are daring to imagine a world without homelessness, and are determined to achieve it. That’s because we genuinely believe that homelessness is not inevitable. It really doesn’t have to exist. We’ve been supporting people in Wales to move on from homelessness for almost 35 years, and we’ve developed a huge understanding of the causes of homelessness. Too often, for the people we’ve supported, there have been multiple opportunities to prevent homelessness before it happened. Too often, those opportunities have been missed. Since we were founded in 1986, we’ve supported over 94,000 people and while we’re happy to celebrate the achievements of everyone we’ve supported, we’re disappointed and angry that so many people have needed our support. Ultimately we want to see an end to youth homelessness and homelessness for women in Wales. So just imagine if we all came together to create a Wales without homelessness. Just imagine the possibilities that would bring. Just imagine the part you could play.

You do not have to live on the streets to be classed as homeless. Women could be relying on friends or family for sleep or living in one of our supported accommodation projects, or domestic abuse refuges. Find out how Llamau supports women ⬇️ https://ow.ly/IHKC50QKEfq

Coming out is a deeply personal journey — one that deserves respect, compassion, and support💜 For young people facing homelessness or difficult circumstances, the fear of rejection can be overwhelming.

🌟 This World Homeless Day, Llamau are proud of the strides you've helped make towards ending youth homelessness in Wales. Thanks to your incredible support, we’ve been able to help young people in so many different ways: 💜 100% of young people at Ty Pride now feel safe for the first time. 💪 92% have reduced their risks with our support. 🏡 88% have moved into safe, suitable accommodation after leaving our programs. But our work isn’t done. Far too many young people still face homelessness, and we can't reach them without you. Your support is vital in continuing this mission. Together, we can create a future where no young person has to face homelessness alone. Will you help us make this a reality?
