Get involved with Crisis at Christmas in Edinburgh

This Christmas, people facing homelessness in Edinburgh will need support. Crisis works at Christmas and all year round to support people in Edinburgh to build lives beyond homelessness. 

Every year at thanks to the Christmas appeal we offer much needed warmth, healthcare, food and company to people experiencing homelessness. Our Christmas services work alongside the specialist support we provide all year, which includes helping people to find their own stable home, to access education and training.  

This Christmas we are planning to support our members and their families.

We will be: 

• Delivering hot three course meals to our members (and their partners / children) and to selected partner organisations on 25 and 26 December - volunteers will be preparing or delivering food  
• Providing gift, food and essentials packs to our members and their children - volunteers will be packing and delivering packs to members
• Offering wellbeing support - we will be looking for podiatrists, massage therapists, barbers, hairdressers and beauty therapists
• Hosting events for our members throughout December, including a multicultural party and outings to local festive activities - volunteers will be supporting with these events.  

Get involved in your local area by attending a Crisis event, volunteering your time, supporting Crisis through fundraising or providing gifts for our guests. Will you help start someone’s life beyond homelessness?
