it would be unfair to the disadvantaged and homeless to close a place intended for them, I know Worcester has st pauls hostel but the ymca standards are far better I have been told an staff are more helpfull with disadvantaged youths.

The YMCA provides vital shelter, especially in the winter months for people that really need it.

We must fight to keep this open, there are so many vulnerable young people out there who simply need places like this. Everybody's reasons for needing this service is different but one thing stays the same, if this service did not become available then the lives of so many young people would dramatically deteriorate. KEEP OPEN THE YMCA

I see first hand how important the YMCA is to helping people get them back on there feet, after different problems have left them either vulnerable or homeless. Without this much needed

If we don't show enough evidence of the work that homeless services do, then I would like to ask the decision makers to spend 24 hours at YMCA, St Paul's and Maggs and meet and work with our clients.

When people present as homeless services think that's the only issue they have. Ask yourself why did they become homeless? A man is more likely to lose his home, job and well-being following a family breakdown. Women that suffer from mental health and domestic abuse need somewhere to go. People with learning difficulties that aren't diagnosed need somewhere if they can't cope with independence. Young people coming out of care and don't know how to live independently. There not just homeless they there lives are in crisis, there scared, anxious, depressed, physically I'll, possibly dependent on other substances many of which are prescribed
