Homeless Action Week
8 - 10 October 2021
World Homeless Day falls on the 10th October 2021 and we are uniting with people around the world who are tackling homelessness.
Our own Homeless Action Week runs from 4-10 October and is a dedicated week of action focused on raising awareness of the impact of homelessness and raising funds to support us in our work.
This years Homeless Action Week will be slightly different. As we focus our efforts on fully re-opening our frontline services again, we have scaled back the activities in the week to focus primarily on the virtual sleep out.
But we can’t do it alone! We need your support, voices and donations.
The virtual sleep out 2021
For people who are homeless life is lonely and isolating, depressing and dangerous. It's hard to imagine what life without a safe space feels like. Our virtual sleep does not aim to replicate what it's like to be homeless but can give an insight into the challenges faced by those living on the streets. Joining is also a great way to get involved with our work, raise awareness of homeless issues and take a stand against homelessness.
How to take part:
- You can sleep out anywhere, a back garden, balcony or even your living room

Concerned about someone sleeping rough?
Here's how you can take action:
- Download the "Streetlink" app form the app-store on your phone.
- The details you provide are sent to the local authority or outreach service for the area. This helps them find the individual and connect them to support services like Providence Row.
