How we transform lives

Do you believe everyone should have a place to call home and the chance to lead a fulfilling life?

Each day across all 32 London boroughs, our staff work with individuals to tackle the underlying causes of homelessness, such as poor mental health or drug and alcohol dependency.

With 40 years of expertise and a London-wide reach, we make a difference to more than 7,000 lives every year.

Often that means being there for people at a critical time – whether to prevent their eviction or help them off the street; to get them into drug or alcohol treatment or support them with their mental health; or to help them find a job and a flat so that they can take the final steps to living on their own.

Perhaps most important of all, our work restores hope to people who might otherwise feel forgotten, left behind or written off, providing crucial footholds in their recovery journey from which they can go on to build independent and fulfilling lives.

Last year:

Help us transform lives

With homelessness at its highest level for a decade and cuts to public services affecting the most vulnerable, our work is more needed than ever. We urgently want to scale up our work, deepen our impact and reach even more people, but we can't do it without you.

By helping a charity with 40 years of expertise in London, your donation will make a direct impact - ensuring that we can continue to be there for people when they need it most.
