Crisis Christmas is now the largest volunteer-run charity event in the country. Based in London, from 23- 30 December, it offers support to over 2000 homeless and vulnerably housed people. Your help is needed to run the centres and with essential support service roles.

Crisis began over 40 years ago as a volunteer-led organisation and much of our work would not be possible without the support of thousands of volunteers. Today, volunteers play a crucial role, working with homeless people, providing essential administrative support or raising crucial funds.

 

Working with Crisis

There are 400,000 hidden homeless people in the UK today - can you help them find their way back into society? These are people living in hostels, squats and bed and breakfast accommodation or sleeping on the floors of friends and family. Many are struggling with problems such as unemployment, family breakdown, mental ill health and substance abuse.

Crisis believes that every homeless person has a right to the support and opportunities they need to fulfil their potential as human beings, and our staff are committed to making this happen. We do this using our skills, compassion, and a dedication to understanding our client group.
