About us
At the LHF we use our fund to help tackle homelessness. By funding ideas and projects that could not get money from anywhere else, we can help to innovate and challenge the sector. Funding your ideas : You bring the idea, and if we agree it’s an idea that could make a difference, we’ll add the money. There is a simple and unbureaucratic application process Your commitment? To do what you said you’d do and then come back and tell us about it afterwards Our own ideas : Sometimes, we have the ideas and look for people to test them out. At the moment, we are particularly interested in projects that look at health and how we can work more closely within the criminal justice system Mergers and special support : We also support organisations through a transition by providing them with expert consultancy help Publishing statistics We publish annual and quarterly reports breaking down all the important statistics from across all sectors

🌟 In case you missed it! Last month, our Kensington and Chelsea service received an award at the London Homelessness Awards for their exceptional efforts in combating homelessness in the capital. Commissioned by The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, this service is making a real difference in the lives of rough sleepers. Since opening in 2022, the dedicated team has worked tirelessly with 157 individuals sleeping rough or in emergency accommodations. We're proud to share that 31% of those supported have moved into more stable housing and are addressing their substance use. 🏠 https://lnkd.in/eDsnwVuv #HomelessnessAwareness #CommunitySupport #LondonHomelessnessAwards #KensingtonAndChelsea Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea

Housing Justice created the Night Shelter Lettings Network, a web-based portal listing all rental properties in London set at Housing Benefit levels on one location for the first time, moving us away from a fragmented approach that led to inconsistent access to property information across the sector. https://lnkd.in/grKmunMP #LondonHomelessnessAwards #LHA2024
