This Christmas, people across Britain will need our help after being pushed into homelessness. This simply shouldn't be happening.
At Crisis, we know we can end homelessness. When Simon walked through our door at Crisis, we supported him every step of the way into a safe and secure home – and a life off the streets.
Make today the first day someone starts their journey out of homelessness.
Every Christmas, thousands of our volunteers up and down Britain provide warmth, companionship and vital services to people facing homelessness at one of the toughest times of the year. We help with everything from health and wellbeing to hairdressing to support finding a place to stay.
We’ve been running Crisis at Christmas since 1967, continually learning about homelessness and how to end it. This isn’t a temporary fix – but a proven way to sustainably help people out of homelessness.
We treat everyone who turns to us for support as an individual, with dignity and respect. The help people receive depends on someone’s personal needs and situation.
Our Christmas services work alongside our year-round teams. Combined, they support people through our day centres in the capital and frontline services across Britain to help people begin a life out of homelessness.
