World homeless day is held annually around the world on the 10th October to raise awareness of homelessness and provide a chance for people to get involved locally. Due to the impact of Coronavirus thousands of UK citizens are falling below the poverty line and into further financial difficulty. Currently there are over 300,000 homeless people in the UK and an estimated 135,000 children living in temporary accommodation with the numbers increasing daily.
How To Help the Homeless
Over the coming months we will be doing more work here in the UK by organising food drives, providing winter warmth essentials and reaching out to our extended network to help those in difficulty.

It’s easy, simply follow the steps below:
- Educate your contacts about homelessness issues
