help homeless unemployed young people whose lives are going nowhere to gain the motivation, confidence and skills they need to gain employment and appropriate accommodation; homeless unemployed young people aged 18 to 30 who may also have misused drugs or alcohol, lack self-esteem or been involved in crime or are ex-offenders. In a residential setting Amber offers a fresh start; a chance to sort out problems, build self-confidence, gain practical skills and qualifications and generally acquire the know-how for independent living and work.
Our track record shows that Amber works. In 2008, Amber's success rate was 81%. That's young people who completed the Amber programme and left having found a job, a training course or in a few cases having achieved a major personal goal. All left into stable accommodation. That’s 112 young people who have transformed their lives from one of chaos and no hope to one of independence and a brighter future.
