Together, we can help families escape homelessness and find the stability they need. Help us help them. For every donation you make, we’ll match it.

Every parent wants their child to feel safe and secure in their own home but love alone won’t protect a child from the harsh reality of homelessness this winter. Our 2024 Christmas appeal highlights the grim conditions facing thousands of families in temporary accommodation, with the message that it doesn’t have to be this way. Over 150,000 children are experiencing homelessness. Often living in damp, cold and cramped temporary accommodation. Heartbreakingly, 62% of families in temporary accommodation have been living there for more than one year. Unfortunately, love alone can’t change this reality. But together, we could.
