Crisis UK

About us

We are the national charity for people experiencing homelessness. We help people directly out of homelessness and campaign for the changes needed to solve it altogether.

We work side by side with people to help them rebuild their lives. From decades of experience of working with thousands of homeless people, we know what's needed to leave homelessness behind for good. We use this experience to shape the services we provide and the changes we campaign for.

Every bit of our work is integrated, and all contributes to our purpose of ending homelessness. The services we provide are carefully informed through our decades of experience of working with homeless people, and the research we've carried out over the years. Our research is driven by our knowledge from working side-by-side with homeless people every day. And this influences our campaigning for permanent change.

Our services

We offer one to one support, advice and courses for homeless people in 12 areas across England, Scotland and Wales.

Housing

Research and campaigning

We carry out pioneering research into the causes and consequences of homelessness, and campaign for the changes needed to end it for everyone, for good.
