Homewards - Aberdeen

“Ending homelessness in Aberdeen and the UK would mean people would have a safe home. They would have a roof over their head.”

– Ryan (young person from Aberdeen with lived experience of homelessness)

Groups where Homewards Aberdeen can help the most

In Aberdeen in 2022/2023, the city experienced the highest number of homeless applications since 2010/11. Groups the Coalition has identified as most in need of support include single people and young people (under the age of 25).

There are lots of reasons why these groups are struggling, including relationship breakdowns, people being asked to leave their homes and a rise in the cost of living and financial pressures.

Homewards Aberdeen plans to lay new groundwork – and make a lasting impact – in four specific ways

1

Supporting young people (under the age of 25)

2

Preventing homelessness among single adults experiencing relationship breakdown

3

Placing people at the heart of everything we do

4

Creating more homes, and a greater variety of homes
