Hi and thank you for taking a look at our impact report.

After my daughter’s suicide in 2017 I started developing Nai’s House, more than anything, I wanted to offer support that would prevent children and young adults from taking their own lives, because the help my daughter needed didn’t exist.Hi and thank you for taking a look at our impact report.

Since our inception almost four years ago, and as the only youth mental health support service in Oxfordshire delivering specific support for suicidality and self harm, we have grown into a much-needed community resource. Our team size, service delivery and referral rate has tripled since 2019. As an organisation that prides itself on changing the way young people receive mental health support, we know our approach is pioneering, works, and is exactly what campaigners and charities such as Young Minds, The Children’s Society, The Children’s Commissioner are asking for. Not to mention young people themselves.

Our successes have landed us at a pivotal point in our journey and we need greater opportunities for financial growth in order to meet the increasing demand for our service. Over the next year, in addition to implementing more support options, we will be focusing on our fundraising strategy to ensure we have the resources to continue delivering the lifesaving work of Nai’s House.

Finally, I’d like to offer a heartfelt thank you to our guests and their families, and everyone out there who supports us in one way or another, including our local and wider community who have supported us consistently and generously over the last four years. And to our Frontline Team who deliver our service. I am amazingly lucky to have these awesome humans on my team who get it and are passionate about what we do, Nai’s House wouldn’t be what it is without them, thank you hugely for all you do

With warmest wishes
Gem Barrett
