Help those facing homelessness in Lambeth - Spires

Aim: London faces a major homelessness challenge. By donating to Spires, you'll be helping more people in Lambeth to exit homelessness.

Spires is committed to supporting those who are homeless and disadvantaged. We provide support to rough sleepers to help them exit homelessness and to prevent homelessness among those who are disadvantaged and at risk. Spires has consistently achieved positive outcomes while also providing lasting social benefits for the Lambeth community.

How Spires is making a difference

In 2024, we helped 757 people at risk of or experiencing homelessness. Numerous positive outcomes were achieved;

• 315 people received housing support
• 117 people received health support
• 107 people received benefits support

Spires’ New Project

Our experienced women's services team at Spires has been providing critical support to women in need in Lambeth for over 20 years. They have been delivering 3 weekly Outreach sessions in the Brixton area to sex-workers and other women at risk of abuse and exploitation, in addition to delivering our drop-in service for women where they provide in-depth casework and keyworker support.

Our new initiative is aiming is to strengthen engagement with sex-working and other women at risk of exploitation and abuse who are not currently fully accessing our services. We are exploring more effective ways of engaging with sex-working women, beyond our night-time outreach. To this end, Spires is launching new initiatives, including day outreach, to guide eligible women to our services and provide the support they need. Our project is designed to support vulnerable women in Lambeth and enhance community safety.

Our vision

In recent years, Spires has expanded operations to support more people facing homelessness. We have introduced new services and projects from various locations to aid the many who are homeless and to reduce rough sleeping in London. Our goal is to continue launching new initiatives and to continue making a positive impact on our local communities. 

How your donation will help

To achieve our goals we need more funding. Increased funding enables us to continue expanding our services, helping more people, and guarantees our long-term stability, ensuring continued support for those in need. We are dedicated to helping those in need who are rough sleeping or at risk of becoming homeless, but need your help to guarantee the continuation of our work.

Each donation will transform lives. Join us in making a meaningful difference.
