Help The Homeless makes grants to charitable organisations with the aim of helping homeless people return to the community and enabling them to rebuild their lives.

Help The Homeless is a cost efficient charity with very small overheads, and so is able to distribute a large proportion of its funds to the wide range of organisations nationwide that help some of the UK's most disadvantaged people.
