Story

For World Homeless Day you can help us support people with a history of homelessness by raising money to purchase essential items to help them move on from our services.

We are raising money to support the vulnerable individuals we work with to move forward, for example by bridging a rental gap when they first start working; or buying a suit for their first interview; or costs for securing necessary identification or even essential white goods when they move off the street and into accommodation

As an example, the cost of a citizen card to be used as ID would be £15. The cost of an outfit to be worn to a job interview would be between £50 and £70. All money raised during WHD will go towards supporting people on the road to recovery.

Support us now. You can donate to support people on the road to recovery, or visit SSJ.org.uk/WorldHomelessDay to find out more about what you can do.
