Homeless But Still Human

Since the start of the pandemic, more than 70,000 households have been made homeless in the UK. This is in addition to the over 20,000 households which are already experiencing core homelessness, a number that has been steadily increasing over the past five years. Despite the government’s pledge that ‘no one should lose their home as a result of the coronavirus’, many low-income families and individuals have been devastated by homelessness as a result of the economic impact of the pandemic. Those who were already homeless were hit with yet another obstacle in their already difficult lives.

This campaign aims to raise awareness about homelessness in the UK and shine a light on how we as companies, NGOs, and individuals can come together to help those in need.

​

On Sunday, 13th March, we will be hosting a very special event at our executive box at Stamford Bridge, for the Chelsea vs Newcastle match. The event will be attended by industry professionals who are well versed in the homelessness crisis in the UK as well as people who have experienced homelessness and have recovered thanks to the help of charities and financial services. 

​

We will also be simultaneously raising money to donate to the incredible charity and first responder to homelessness, Shelter.

​

In light of all that the pandemic has stripped from us, we want to give back to those in the community who are struggling with homelessness.

Everybody deserves the right to a safe home and by bringing together key parties we hope to stimulate the right conversation to drive action-packed strategies that can alleviate homelessness.
