This September we celebrated 10 years of Y-House! This September we celebrated 10 years of Y-House! We haven’t been able to celebrate exactly the way we would have liked (or at all), but we are grateful to reach this special milestone. This 10th year has brought with it an incredible amount of change and development at Y-House and we are proud of the ongoing impact we have been able to achieve especially in such challenging times. Whilst it has been a tough yeah for everyone, we acknowledge it has been especially tough for the 6048 young Australians living in aged care. We’re feeling a bit nostalgic looking back on 10 years! We would like to say a BIG thank you to all of our wonderful supporters who have over the years attended events, donated to campaigns and spread the Y-House message. Thanks also go out to our wonderful program team who have risen to the challenge of the last 6 months, our ever committed senior and junior committees and all of our fabulous volunteers. Here’s to the next 10!!! #YHouse #10years

A large number of the young people living in aged care that we work with don’t have access to their own electronic device to access support and stay in touch. In fact, a number of the young people we work with have to wait to use a communal computer at their aged care facility, which is not only time consuming but not ideal for good hygiene practices. We want to provide young people in these situations with the critical technology they need to be able to access ongoing support, throughout lockdown and beyond. Please help us help young people living in aged care. Any amount helps! Donations $2 and over are also tax deductible!

It’s National Volunteer Week and we want to say It’s National Volunteer Week and we want to say a HUGE thank you to all of our fabulous Y-House volunteers! From our event volunteers to our committee members - we absolutely could not do what we do without you, you’re priceless!! #NationalVolunteerWeek #ChangingCommunitiesChangingLives #YHouse

We know that this is a really difficult time for a We know that this is a really difficult time for all Australians and we acknowledge it can be even harder for young people living in aged care who are further isolated and removed from their supports and communities. In response to the recent Covid-19 Pandemic we've changed the way we're working at Y-House to ensure the people we work with, as well as our staff and volunteers, are safe whilst still offering our programs and support. Firstly, all of our planned aged care visits have been cancelled and we will await further guidance from the government and aged care bodies prior to any reinstatement. Whilst there will be no physical visits, we have launched a new online platform called Y-Connect. This is an online community for young people across Australia, living in aged care, to interact and share their experiences. If you're living in aged care and want to join this platform, please send us a message. During this time, our wonderful and flexible staff are working from home to ensure our programs continue to operate. We remain contactable via the usual email and phone contacts. Finally, due to the current social distancing recommendations sadly our 10th year anniversary ball will not be going ahead in 2020. We know how many people were excited about this event, so you can guarantee that as soon as we can safely have 300 people in a room together you'll be hearing from us! Please get in touch if you have any questions or need any support, and most importantly stay safe! #StayingApartKeepsUsTogether #YHouse
