We are hoping to raise £5000 for HomeLess One, a charity that works seven days a week to bring hot meals and drinks to the homeless community in Birmingham. According to a damning report by Shelter, Birmingham is ranked 22nd nationally for the number of people experiencing homelessness and is the worst region across the West Midlands. Homelessness levels are rising, with 15,538 people now homeless in Birmingham – or one in 73.

About HomeLess One: Founded in 2015, HomeLess One started with a father and daughter serving hot tea and biscuits to anyone experiencing homelessness in Birmingham that they came across. Today, it is a well-established charity fuelled by support from the local community with a mission to ensure that, every homeless person receives a hot meal. HomeLess One serve over 62,000 hot meals and drinks from their Digbeth centre seven days a week.

Homelessness does not just apply to rough sleepers, it also encompasses those in temporary accommodation and those experiencing ‘hidden’ homelessness, where people have accommodation but it is unsuitable or overcrowded.
