NHP appoints Jamie Roberts to Board of Trustees
10th July 2023
NHP is delighted to announce the appointment of Jamie Roberts as a Trustee, joining the six-member strong Board of Trustees and a wider team of supporting staff. NHP is a progressive and innovative charity, set up in 2018 to help address the unjust and poor outcomes many young people face after leaving the care system without the necessary support and guidance. Working with local councils and businesses, NHP runs multiple projects for young care leavers across the UK to help develop a sense of community, fulfilment, and interdependence.
A message from our CEO July 2023

When NHP was incorporated as a charity 5 years ago next month we were a merry band of three who had just moved out of our respective kitchens (that were doubling as offices!) with budget for a further 18 months. Next month we celebrate our 5th birthday and we marked the occasion at a party last week at Freight Island in Manchester. It was a fantastic event in the glorious Mancunian sunshine and was enjoyed by 200 young people, staff, consultants, partners and fundraisers from across the UK.

A message from our CEO
Young people tell us that the House Project approach helps significantly, but we should never underestimate the enormous challenges they face at such a critical time in their lives.

Even though Sue is fully in control of this decision-making process - something our young people often are not - the transition has still been discombobulating; letting go of something she enjoys and that has defined her, and moving on to something that will be incredibly rewarding and joyous.
