Transforming the Lives of Young Adults

At Amber we support young adults (aged 18-30) facing complex problems and offer homeless support to transform their lives by helping them move away from homelessness, out of unemployment and work towards better, brighter and healthier futures.

At our centres in Devon, Wiltshire, Surrey and Kent we provide much more than a safe place to stay. Alongside a temporary home, every young person who comes to Amber receives personalised support and has the opportunity to develop new skills, experiences and has the time to focus on themselves. Our work is designed to help young people move on positively and independently to a job, a place in education or training and most importantly of all a safe, sustainable place to call home.

Eddie Jordan, OBE

Eddie is a businessman, television personality, pundit and former motorsport team owner.

Amber is a charity that is very close to my heart and I am delighted to be a Patron of such an important cause. The opportunities that we get in life can be a roll of the dice and many young people don’t get the support, care or opportunities that they need, which can lead some down the wrong path. That is where Amber makes a difference. We help young people to realise their potential so that they have the confidence and motivation to grab the opportunities that they have with both hands.

“I am so pleased to be able to support Amber. Their work helping some of the most disadvantaged young people in our society is so valuable and is needed now more than ever. I met some of the young people when I visited Amber’s Surrey centre. It was great to spend some time with them. They have chosen to put crime, addiction and homelessness behind them. With the help of Amber they’re determined to find a better way.”
