This year from the 1st October, we are building up to World Homelessness Day on 10th October with 10 days of things you can Do, Discuss and Donate to take charge of change.
Raising awareness of the youth homelessness crisis is vital. Learn more about a topic that, for many, goes completely unnoticed. Then have an open discussion with friends and loved ones. The more people know, the more they can influence change.

This winter is going to be the hardest for young people yet - facing a housing and cost-of-living crisis. Donate so we can ensure young people stay safe and warm as it get colder.
We're calling political parties to commit to a strategy to end youth homelessness. Write to your MP, share our campaign with others and get your organisation on board.

It’s all hands on deck to get them out to young people! Rough sleeping increased 33% in the last few months so sadly we are seeing a lot of our young people who really need these care packs with essential items such as toothbrushes, hand-warmers, thermals and sleeping bags. Thanks so much @thecarepack for your donation, it has made lots of our young people very happy!

We also couldn’t have done this without @biggiveorg 💙🎁🎄✨🏡
T-minus 25 hours until the end of the BIG Christmas Challenge, and we have just under £3,000 to raise to reach our target!!
