About Genora
About Genora Global Foundation
A safe place to begin again.
Genora Global Foundation is a charitable organisation established to support young people aged 18-30 who are experiencing mental health challenges, leaving inpatient hospital care, facing a crisis or at risk of homelessness.
We provide safe supported housing, personalised recovery support, structured programmes and emergency accommodation that help young people rebuild confidence, develop essential life skills and move towards independent living and permanent housing.
Our focus
Safe accommodation, compassionate support and a path towards independence.
Our story
Why Genora exists.
Too many young people are being discharged from hospital without suitable housing, or find themselves in a mental health crisis with nowhere safe to go. Others are living with the pressure of homelessness, instability and uncertainty when they are at their most vulnerable.
Genora exists to bridge the gap between immediate crisis and long-term recovery. We aim to provide safe emergency accommodation alongside specialist support that helps young people stabilise, rebuild confidence and prepare for independent living.
Our work is focused on helping young people move from survival to stability, and from instability to sustainable housing and a brighter future.
