This #GivingTuesday, we’d like to thank every person, business, school, church and organisation that has given in some way to support our life-changing work. Together, we’ve helped thousands of people to escape homelessness since 1988. We’ve given hope and the chance of a new beginning.
There are so many different ways that people can give their time, skills and resources to help our charity and local people experiencing homelessness.
– Give your time and skills
We’re need of volunteers. Volunteering with us is very flexible with no obligation to commit to a set number of hours. At the moment we are particularly in need of people to help cook in the evenings (6.30pm-8.30pm) and people to stay overnight (9pm-8am). Overnighters have their own private bedroom and usually get a very good night’s sleep!
– Become a monthly donor
Signing up to give a little each month will help to give shelter and support to someone who really needs it.
– Christmas Cards
Buy and send our Christmas cards this year and help raise funds to support our work, available to buy here.
– Fundraise
Perhaps 2023 is the year to achieve that challenge you’ve always wanted to complete. Your achievement will give someone the opportunity of a fresh start.
– Sign up to Easyfundraising
It really is easy. Simply sign up and do your shopping with high street retailers via Easyfundraising. It doesn’t cost you a penny, the shops will donate to us. Sign up here.
