Nightsafe

I first started using Nightsafe when I was 16 and quite rebellious and asked to leave my family home. I stayed here in the shelter until Nightsafe staff helped me

Nightsafe means the world to me. Without nightsafe, I would never have been able to make as far in life as I did.

I want to help Nightsafe in any way I can. And I think me talking about my experiences will help others to be comfortable enough to come here to get that help they need to succeed in life.
