We have a few tools that help you manage rent.

We use PayPal for making rent payments.

 

You don’t need to have a Paypal account for this!

After the first screen that asks for the payment amount, select the button that says “Pay by Debit or Credit Card”. This will bring you to a screen asking for payment details.

Please don’t ignore it if there is a problem with paying your rent.

Please get in touch and discuss whats happening with your support worker (if you’re in stage 1 or 2), or your tenancy worker (if you’re in Exwick, or Sidwell Studios).

If rent has been missed, we will ask you to fill out a rent repayment agreement. This ensures that everyone knows what rent you expect to pay.

YMCA Exeter operates a charitable donation Rent Bursary scheme that helps young people who are currently living in our Newcourt accommodation to be able to enter into full time employment.

This is because as your income from your employment increases, the amount you receive from Housing Benefit decreases.

Please speak with your support worker to find out more about this, and if this applies to you.

We have several rent calculators to help you estimate how changes to your income will impact your housing benefit and your top-up.

Did you know, you can become a Friend of the YMCA Did you know, you can become a Friend of the YMCA Exeter by signing up to give as little as £2 a month? That can cost less than a chocolate bar 🍫 and can go towards offering a young person a meal in our café. 

But it’s more than a meal and delicious food. When residents come to our onsite café, they also have the chance to form meaningful connections and conversations, helping to improve not only physical health but emotional, too.

Before Christmas, we have a goal of 100 monthly givers - be part of the 100 club, and become a Friend of YMCA Exeter today by visiting the link in our bio! 🔗

From Failed businesses to Dragon’s Den, this World From Failed businesses to Dragon’s Den, this World Entrepreneurs’ day we are sharing Nikki Buckley’s story of faith and entrepreneurship. Scroll to read ➡️

As a YMCA Exeter trustee, we are so grateful for her wisdom and expertise and are excited to share some of her story!

Nikki’s top tips for taking the first step as an entrepreneur: 

📞starting out is not about knowing everything; sometimes it’s just about booking a first meeting or making a phone call
🕧it will always cost you more, and it will always take you longer
📖what you don’t know, you just have to learn
🤝don’t be afraid of partnering
💼don’t let business plans that have gone wrong in the past hold you back
♥️with anyone you’re dealing with, be guarded but open-hearted

Nikki shared more of her story on @ucbmedia today, visit the link in our bio or visit the YMCA Exeter YouTube channel to catch up!
