The 30 Day Challenge
Are you ready to take on our 30 Day Challenge to support more than 4,667 people currently facing homelessness?
No one dream of being homeless and at Changing Lives we provide support 365 days of the year to those facing the challenges of homelessness across the UK.
How you take on the challenge is up to you, but by raising £300 across March you can become a life changer and help us deliver support to those who need it most.
Whether you raise £300 on your own or as part of a small group, every effort brings meaningful change to someone who needs support.
We’ll be here to help you every step of the way with ideas, resources, and fundraising tips.
