Elmbridge Rentstart (UK) Ltd
(UK, 1156746) Browse events
YTD Raised: £3,979.79
(UK, 1156746) Thank you for visiting our profile page on MyDonate.Elmbridge Rentstart is a small local charity based in Elmbridge Borough. We support people through all the stages of homelessness and vulnerable housing. We reach out to the street homeless and those who are hidden from view and continue to support them with training and advice, often for well over a year as they transition to permanent and stable housing. Every year we advise around 350 people and go on to provide housing and help to around 140 local people. We not only provide people with a place to call home but support them to move on with their lives - we give financial literacy, CV writing, tenancy responsibilities, interview practice and emotional support that means our clients can move on from our support and live successful independent lives. As the numbers of people unable to find a home and sleeping rough is increasing, your fundraising will help us help more local people find a place to call home.

Nightwatch
(UK, 274925) Browse events
YTD Raised: £3,829.26Nightwatch is a charity that has been caring for homeless people in the London Borough of Croydon for more than thirty years. We are an entirely voluntary organisation with more than 100 volunteers who are out, in teams, every night of the year. We help people at evey level of homelessness, including the street homeless through those in hostels, bed and breakfast and unsatisfactory accommodation. We also help former homeless poeple who are still vulnerable and whose main point of contact is via the homeless community. An important part of our work is not only the physical but the emoitional and spiritual wellbeing of the people we see. We are involved in supplying food, clothing, household goods and in the resettlement of former homeless people into new accommodation. We have no paid staff and the charity does not own property (a church allows us a kitchen and storage areas at a low rent). Our adminsitrative costs are therefore very low so a high proportion of money donated to us goes directly to people in need.
