Crisis is the national charity for people experiencing homelessness. We are committed to ending homelessness. Every day we see the devastating impact homelessness has on people’s lives. Every year we work side by side with thousands of people, to help them rebuild their lives and leave homelessness behind for good. Through our pioneering research into the causes and consequences of homelessness, and the solutions, we know what it will take to end it. Together with others who share our resolve, we bring our knowledge, experience and determination to campaign for the changes that will end the housing crisis, once and for all. We mobilise a unique volunteer effort each Christmas to bring warmth, companionship and vital services to people at one of the hardest times of the year, and offer a starting point out of homelessness. We know that homelessness is not inevitable. We know that together we can end it.
Crisis works at Christmas and all year round to support people across Britain to rebuild their lives away from homelessness. Crisis at Christmas has been running since 1967, and over that time we’ve learnt a lot about homelessness and how we can help end it. Our support over this period is not a temporary fix but a proven approach that helps people sustainably build their lives beyond homelessness.
