The Foyer Federation creates programmes, campaigns and ideas for Foyers to implement, filling gaps in community services and inspiring policy and decision makers to make a more effective investment in young people.

Examples range from supported housing, training and employment projects, homeless prevention initiatives, transitional learning and health and well-being programmes, to a university support scheme and campaigns for welfare reform. Through our projects and initiatives we explore ways to involve young people in shaping the services they receive.
