Every day of every year, thousands of young people in the UK find themselves homeless.
Many are forced to sleep in overcrowded hostels, on the sofas of people they barely know, or worse still, on the streets. Yet homelessness isn’t inevitable. It’s a problem that can be solved.
With the right support services and secure accommodation, we can prevent young people from becoming homeless and protect those who are. Unfortunately, it’s not that simple. Rising rents and reductions in benefit payments have had a negative impact on the country’s most vulnerable young people and organisations delivering critical services are struggling with an increase in demand. They desperately need investment to reach more young people.
That’s why we’re here. For over 30 years we have been bringing together remarkable businesses and individuals from across the property industry to support projects that provide life-changing accommodation for young people facing homelessness.

"Well organised event, I was a bit worried what the running pace would be. However it was steady and no one was left behind. The steady pace made the conversation easier. Great to meet companies from all areas of the property sector and it turned out our business were already dealing them."
"We hosted a cycling event with PSN and it was excellent. Clear and consistent communications with the team, a lovely group of attendees with common interests, and of course a great networking opportunity for all."
"I took part in the online pilates, HIIT and yoga morning sessions during lock-down. The instructors were amazing, motivating us to push ourselves and always remaining positive. It’s also given me a new love of pilates – thank you!"
"I've taken part in several events organised by Property Sports Network, including runs at MIPIM I've found them to be an accessible and fun way of making new contacts in the industry. Always good to meet people with similar interests and enjoy a well-deserved drink afterwards, especially after the night run in Richmond!"
"I recently attended a yoga event. Not only was it a great chance to keep fit and network, we also had a guided tour of the incredible venue. The class was suitable for all levels, so there was no need to be nervous about ability. I look forward to attending the next event, I’m hoping to be able to make it to the self-defence class next time."
"I've been taking part in the networking runs for many years, starting at MIPIM. The events have continued to grow year on year and this year at UKREiiF were really well attended. Always well organised, enjoyable and a great way of meeting new people, networking and starting the day in the best way possible."
"We were happy to host a Self Defence event in our flexible office space. The evening was energetic, fun and useful, where we learnt some great moves from the professional and talented Taekwondo instructors. The event was a perfect size in terms of being intimate and friendly, with a great crowd of various industry faces. The sporting activity gave everyone the chance to earn the optional post exercise drinks that followed, it was a well organised evening and everyone left the office feeling ready to face any potential attackers should they need to!"
"The PGA Networking was my first Property Sports Network event, and certainly won't be my last! I had heard great things from my colleagues about the network, and this event in particular. The event was well organised with a mix of industry professionals from across the sector. I'd have no hesitation to attend or recommend future events!".
"A friendly, welcoming group of runners - the route was great and the pace suitable for all abilities with plenty of stops for regrouping. Lots of smiling faces and great to finish off with a drink and pizza from Markides Associates!"
"The Property Sports Network has allowed me to expand my network whilst having fun and enjoying a similar interest to others. I have been several times and always feel the classes are very high quality, very down to earth and an excellent way to break the ice with new contacts. The relaxed yet informative environment is a real plus, They are also very well organised and are at great venues too. Highly recommended, 5 stars."
