Fundraising
Support people out of homelessness – your way
Fundraising is a powerful way to help people on their journey out of homelessness. Whether you’re running a marathon, hosting a coffee morning, or holding a collection at your local church, every pound you raise helps someone take the next step towards a safer, more stable life.
At Church Homeless Charity, we provide life-changing grants to people experiencing homelessness – and we couldn’t do it without the dedication of people like you.
Fundraise in your workplace, church or community
Whether you’re part of a workplace team, faith group, hobby club or community organisation, we’d love your support. Why not:
- Host a bake sale or coffee morning
- Organise a quiz night or concert
- Hold a sponsored silence, walk, hike or run
- Take part in a local or national challenge event
- Nominate us as your workplace or church’s charity of the year
We’re happy to support you with everything you need to get started – from printable posters and sponsor forms to bespoke fundraising packs tailored to your event.
We’re with you every step of the way
No idea is too small. Whether you’re aiming to raise £50 or £5,000, your fundraising will make a difference. Our friendly team is here to help with ideas, materials, and encouragement. We can provide:
- Fundraising guides and posters
- Personalised materials for your event
- Support with setting up online fundraising pages
- A speaker or charity representative (where possible)
Together, we can change lives – one step, one slice of cake, or one challenge at a time.

Recent fundraising
We’d like to thank everyone who took part in fundraisers during the last few months. Your support is deeply appreciated and helps us to extend our reach to more people in need.
Camping out for the cause
Staff members from The Beacon opted to experience a night outdoors for their recent fundraiser. Setting up camp in their local Tesco car park, they were also joined by a few Tesco staff members. Taking sponsorships, and donations on the night, they raised an incredible £1,159.84.
The Beacon (part of Riverside Group) offers supported housing to single veterans who are homeless or at risk of homelessness and who have support needs.
Cindy McAulay, Projects Assistant at The Beacon said: “We wanted to do the fundraiser for your fabulous charity as we feel that it’s time to give back. And we cannot thank you enough for the constant support you give our veterans.”
A musical message of hope
For over 35 years, musician Bryn Haworth has taken his music to prisons, where he speaks with inmates and witnesses first-hand the close link between prison and homelessness.
Driven by his belief that cycles of homelessness can be broken with better support, affordable housing, and stronger care systems, Bryn is passionate about making a difference.
“Having a home goes some way to breaking that cycle,” he says. In line with this message, he recently rereleased his single All I Need is a Home to raise awareness and funds for Church Homeless Charity.
His efforts have been impactful, exceeding his £1,000 fundraising goal.
A day to treasure
3i’s summer fundraiser at London Zoo was a roaring success, raising an incredible £5,206. Staff put their teamwork skills to the test with a thrilling treasure hunt, culminating in a grand prize for the team that cracked the final code.
If you know a business that would like to partner with us and elect us as a chosen charity, then please get in touch. By making us your chosen cause, you can make a real difference in the lives of those most in need. To learn more, please contact us.
Festive fundraising
As the festive season approaches, many of our generous supporters choose to hold special church services to raise funds for us. Last year, one of our trustees, Liz Toher, organised a brilliant concert at her church, raising vital funds to support those in need throughout the winter months (Pictured). Each event hosted by our supporters extends a helping hand to people with very little.
If your church or community group would like to host a fundraising event, please reach out – we’d love to help make it a success.
