The London Walk · 4 November 2021 to 20 March 2022 ·

We empower women in London to overcome their homelessness and live independently. We are a wrap-around service, providing basic needs like shelter, access to healthcare and food, alongside a programme of confidence-building employment and wellness activities. We are Church Army's flagship project.

Story

There are approximately 11,000 people that sleep on London’s streets every year. And 1000’s and 1000’s of hidden homeless who you don’t ever see. 

That’s why I am doing the London Walk (oi!). On Saturday 19th March 2022 I, along with hundreds of others, will be marching, strolling and strutting together through the night to raise ever-important funds. After the walk I will also be sleeping rough in a doorway or wherever I can find somewhere safe for the night - to share the plight of the people I’m raising money to help.

All the money I raise will be going to The Sanctuary at The Marylebone Project, where I work, to help fund London’s first women’s drop-in Centre, where the doors never close. We’ve also 112 residents living there who are cared for and supported back into independence.

Please help me to raise as much as I can to help make more services available for these women. It costs £10 to supply a care package to a homeless women visiting our service or £47 per night for a stay in our purpose built accommodation with will support from our care workers.

Thank you for you support. I look forward to sharing pictures with you during the walk and of me sleeping rough in London - something which literally terrifies me.
