Donate to our Christmas Appeal

This Christmas, Action Homeless will be supporting over 250 people experiencing homelessness. Due to the ongoing cost of living emergency, we fear an overall increase in homelessness and we know that the next few months will be particularly challenging for many people.

We are ready to respond by offering personalised support to break the cycle of  homelessness this festive season. We need your help to ensure that we can make this often difficult time a little brighter for our all of our residents. Take a look at our Christmas Wish list or make a donation today.

How can you help?

1. Donate to our Christmas Appeal

  •  £5 Pays for a gift for a child or adult living in temporary accommodation 
  • £10 Pays for a 3 course Christmas dinner for someone experiencing homelessness 
  • £20 Pays for a Christmas baking session at our Community Living Room which brings people together for some festive fun

You can easily make a donation today of an amount that works for you.

If you’d like to know more about how donations like yours make a positive impact on the lives of people who have experienced homelessness, take a look at one of our client Case Studies.
