We are raising funds to pay for our trauma-informed support work. Our Family Mentors work to address the underlying causes of homelessness by supporting families with 1:1 mentoring sessions, advocacy and signposting. Their focus is on preparing families for independent living in a safe environment.

Beneficiaries
Over 159,000 children in England went to sleep homeless last year. Within our local authority, there are currently 6,656 households on the social housing waiting list (Shelter, Mar-25). Our referrals criteria: A family must be homeless (or at risk of homelessness) and have 2+ unmet support needs (substance misuse, care leaver, social care involvement, experience of domestic abuse, debt/rent arrears, mental health issues, disabilities).
Save the Family offers temporary housing and round-the-clock support to homeless and at-risk families. We enable families to stay together in a safe, home environment whilst addressing the underlying causes of their homelessness. Our modern, multi-purpose facility provides tailored assistance from a trauma-informed team, who support families to reintegrate into the community and feel empowered, equipped and ready to carve out a brighter future with increased aspirations and opportunities.
