Story

This year, we are proudly celebrating 30 years of making a difference in the lives of those experiencing homelessness! Over the past three decades, The Bridge (East Midlands) has provided critical support, advice, and hope to thousands of individuals and families in need.

Since registering as a charity in 1995, we've grown into a lifeline for the vulnerable in our community. We offer Advice, Support, Outreach and Advocacy services to help people rebuild their lives, find housing stability and regain independence.

To mark our 30th anniversary, we’re challenging the community to raise £30,000 to ensure we can continue our vital work for years to come, despite continuously rising demand.

And, not one's to miss out, we're also challenging our staff team to raise £30,000 too!

Every penny raised will go directly towards our 10 services:

- Housing Advice

- Tenancy Relations & Landlord Advice

- Accommodation Advice & Support to males in custody / on probation

- Countywide rough sleeper outreach service

- Supported Lettings to help rough sleepers transition into homes

- Holistic support for Rough Sleepers in new accommodation

- Homelessness support and advice for 16-17yos

- talk²sort Mediation to prevent youth homelessness

- Triage - first point of contact

- Electricity/Gas & Food Parcel support

Homelessness is a challenge no one should face alone. With your support, we can continue to provide safety, dignity, and opportunity to those who need it most.

Join us in celebrating 30 years of compassion and action. Together, we can make our next chapter even more impactful.

Donate now and be a part of the solution. Every donation, no matter the size, makes a difference. Thank you for standing with us!
