The housing crisis is a national emergency. Right now, thousands of people are trying to get by without a safe place to call home.

In 2016 I had personal experience of a family member dying on the streets. Everywhere you go now you see people trying to live on the streets - I cannot imagine the struggle of being denied a warm bed, shelter and necessities like a toilet and shower.

A safe home is a fundamental need and basic moral rright. I'm joining the amazing London Landmarks Half Marathon runners and joining the fight for home by fundraising to support families and individuals facing homelessness. Because home is everything.

Please give what you can. Your support means everything. Thank you! Helen X
