A home for good

In the time it takes to fill a Christmas stocking, one Londoner is forced into homelessness.  

In one of the world’s wealthiest cities, we think that’s inexcusable.  

We’re calling on the Government to take action and help people to stay in their own homes. And we’re asking for your help too. 

You can make a difference - whether it be donating, volunteering, calling for help in an emergency or even just a smile from a friendly face. 

Because everyone deserves a place to call home. For good.
