From Street Homeless to Homeowner – Ian’s Incredible Journey

Campaign by Alabaré

Just 12 months ago, Ian Bayliss was street homeless. He came to ALABARÉ through our emergency bedspaces, unsure of what the future held. Today, Ian has moved into a home that he helped build through our Veterans Self-Build Scheme.

ALABARÉ is a leading UK charity committed to breaking the cycle of homelessness. Founded in 1991 by a Christian community, we are now a lifeline for those experiencing homelessness across the South West of England and Wales, by providing homes, restoring hearts, and empowering minds.

Story

Over the past year, Ian has gained valuable construction skills and secured full-time employment. His story is a powerful example of how, together, we are breaking the cycle of homelessness by providing homes, restoring hearts, and empowering minds.

The Ludgershall self-build development where Ian and his fellow veterans now call home has closed, and we’re looking for new opportunities to continue this life-changing work. You can help us make this happen:

• Donate today to fund the next self-build programme, so more veterans like Ian can rebuild their lives.

Your support makes stories like Ian’s possible.
