“I’ve got the confidence to live better.”

Phoebe, Supported Housing resident
Last year, we provided safe, local homes and support to 1,345 people in our supported accommodation and 13 children in care.

Over 53% of those we supported were young people, between 16-30 years old.

Your generous gifts and donations could:
  • Make sure that nobody goes without a gift this Christmas
  • Provide equipment and essentials for people in Supported Accommodation
  • Create projects and opportunities to support residents’ wellbeing and independence
  • Fund a hot meal on Christmas day, prepared by chefs at Malt Cross, Nottingham
