In 2024, our small but hard-working team awarded grants to around 7,600 people in urgent need. Demand for our support is high all year round but the dangers of homelessness and rough sleeping are more acute through the cold and wet winter months.

 

 

Ian will never forget the day he arrived home to find that his landlord had passed away suddenly. The family wanted to move quickly to sell the house and Ian didn’t know what to do or where he could go. Like many people, Ian was struggling to survive. Ian received a grant of £450 which allowed him to pay the first month’s rent on a new flat.
 
But more people than ever before are applying for grants from the Emergency Fund, which is why we urgently need your support. Please, if you can, make a donation today.
