The Safe Accommodation team marked International Families Day in the Liverpool sunshine with a picnic in the park.

It was an afternoon of warm weather, good company, and a perfect moment to pause and appreciate the people at the heart of everything we do. Days like this are a reminder of why this work matters so much.

If you need mental health support, here is how to access it.

1️⃣ Contact your Local Authority’s housing team (in Liverpool, this is called ‘Housing Solutions’)
2️⃣ If our service can meet your needs, they’ll send us a referral or refer you to a service better suited to you.
3️⃣ Once we receive a referral, we’ll be in touch with you.
4️⃣ We’ll then work through everything with you, and if it feels right for everyone, you’ll move into our service.

We have a range of mental health support services, including crisis support homes, Stepping Stones, Nightingale House and more, so we can be there for you no matter what you’re dealing with.

Residents from our young people’s service went for a walk in the park as part of Mental Health Awareness Week, enjoying the benefits of spending time in nature and staying active.

Each person also got their very own self-care kit packed with goodies and mindfulness tips to support them in the future.

At Rise for Mental Health Awareness Week, our service users have been taking part in a number of activities to boost their wellbeing.

They’ve taken time each day to connect with each other and with nature, complete mindfulness activities, and eat nutritious food, including some delicious yoghurt bowls that they really enjoyed making.

Time in nature, good food, and moments of calm all help to reduce stress, lift mood, and build resilience over time.

When YMCA Together became You Matter, we needed new branding to reflect our new chapter.

A big thank you to Benson Signs for our new external signage, lettering, totems and feature panels with our new branding at our HQ. We think it looks amazing 😊

Words like these are why we do what we do.

This feedback from a resident who stayed in our Safe Accommodation Service is a reminder of what’s possible when people are safe and supported, perhaps for the first time in a long time.

The work our teams do goes far beyond housing. It's about showing up, listening, and walking alongside people through some of the hardest moments of their lives.

If you or someone you know needs support, we’re here for you.

We may have changed our name, but the people we support have always been, and will always remain, at the heart of everything we do.

For over 180 years, we’ve been supporting people across the Liverpool City Region through some of life’s hardest moments.

Working with people when things feel unstable, overwhelming or uncertain, offering safe homes and help that starts with listening.

Our garden project has kicked off at Leeds Street, getting the outdoor space ready for summer ☀️

We’ll be growing lots of fruit and veg, and we’re sprucing the place up to make it a great spot to spend time outdoors over the next few months.
