Homelessness Partners
The majority of the individuals we fund are in supported living schemes run by Riverside Care and Support. There are more than 100 schemes across England, including projects for people with drug or alcohol dependency; accommodation for homeless families; mother and baby units; women’s refuges; temporary housing for ex-Services personnel; accommodation for people with learning disabilities; and young people’s foyers.
We support Genesis Trust, which provides services to homeless people in Bath, most recently by contributing to the construction of their new foyer.
We contribute to the Migrants’ Destitution Fund, run by Housing Justice, which provides a living allowance to asylum seekers while they are not eligible for any benefits, or allowed to work.
Corporate Partnerships
We work with companies to create ongoing partnerships that benefit the people we support. Financial advisors Centrus sent a team to help transform one of the schemes we support, and enjoy a special day of volunteering. 15 staff members, including some visitors to London from their Dublin office, were able to spend a day volunteering at Acre Lane homelessness scheme in Brixton, helping to refurbish communal areas of the ground floor for the scheme’s homeless residents.
