Caring in Bristol joins the Bristol24/7 Better Business network
Caring in Bristol is delighted to announce its membership of the Bristol24/7 Better Business network.
Caring in Bristol is a Bristol-based homelessness charity. It works in creative and imaginative ways with people experiencing or at risk of homelessness, with the public and with community partners, to bring about lasting changes in Bristol and beyond.
They are perhaps known best for their Caring at Christmas project, which runs every day from Christmas Eve until December 30.
Caring at Christmas provides expert support, comfort and safety for those experiencing homelessness during the festive period
It is the largest project of its kind in the South West, and they could not run it without the amazing support of the local businesses and individuals who support them by providing vital donations.
Caring at Christmas provides expert support, comfort and safety for those experiencing homelessness during the festive period.
But Caring in Bristol’s work does not stop at Christmas, they work 365 days of the year to truly make an impact in the city.
Their year-round early prevention initiatives are proven to work. They reduce the uncertainty, distress, and harm caused when housing insecurity emerges.
Stopping homelessness in its tracks is also better for everyone in Bristol, because it cannot be right that people in our city have their lives devastated by a housing crisis.
Alongside this work, Caring in Bristol provides specialist, holistic support to young people experiencing a housing crisis. Young people face unique barriers that can make finding appropriate and affordable housing a challenge.
Caring in Bristol believes that Bristol is a city that can end homelessness
Some may find themselves forced out onto the street or into precarious living. Caring in Bristol’s youth services are built around the needs and aspirations of the young people they work with. They provide comprehensive support to secure the positive future they deserve.
Caring in Bristol believes that Bristol is a city that can end homelessness. This monumental task requires the support of our entire local community.
By joining the Bristol 24/7 Better Business network, Caring in Bristol hopes to find powerful new opportunities for collaboration to make a true, lasting difference to those facing homelessness in our city.
