Christmas is a time most of us associate with family, warmth, and celebration. But for the people supported by Julian House, the festive season can feel very different. For those sleeping rough or living in temporary accommodation, it’s a time of survival — not celebration.

As many enjoy festive comforts, thousands face homelessness and a daily struggle to survive the winter. Rough sleeping is life-threatening, but hidden homelessness—sofa surfing, hostels, and overcrowded housing—impacts even more. Rising living costs and a lack of affordable housing trap people in crisis. Julian House offers emergency shelter and long-term support to help rebuild lives. This winter, no one should be left out in the cold. Not now. Not ever.
Homelessness is complex, with no single cause or fix. Julian House supports people across the South West — from rough sleepers to those fleeing abuse or leaving prison. Through outreach, safe housing, and tailored, trauma-informed care, we help people rebuild their lives and escape homelessness for good.
