Volunteer with Crisis at Christmas and be there for someone as they start to build a life beyond homelessness.
Crisis works at Christmas and all year round to support people across Britain to build their lives beyond homelessness. Our Christmas services work alongside the specialist support we provide all year, which includes helping people to find their own stable home and access education and training.
Through our year-round services, hotels and health and wellbeing programmes, we supported over 6,600 people at Crisis at Christmas 2023.
As a Crisis at Christmas volunteer, you will be part of a friendly and supportive community of like-minded people who are passionate about ending homelessness. Many of our volunteers return year after year.
As a volunteer, you will gain skills, have inspiring experiences, build confidence and above all help someone as they start to build a life beyond homelessness.
Typical volunteer roles include providing fresh and nourishing home-cooked meals for guests and members, offering specialist services such as haircuts, podiatry and physiotherapy, driving guests and / or wellbeing packages and offering advice.
Every Christmas we mobilise a unique volunteering effort to provide warmth, companionship and vital services to people facing homelessness at one of the toughest times of the year. Each year thousands of volunteers up and down the country make our Christmas services possible.
