Give today to provide food, warmth and hope for people experiencing homelessness
As the nights grow colder, many people will spend Christmas without a roof over their head. For someone sleeping on the streets, even the smallest act of kindness can mean everything.
At Merchants Quay, your support offers warmth and safety – whether it’s a hot meal, a shower or clean clothes. Your gift this Christmas can help someone find comfort on a cold night, and remind them they are not forgotten.
Every winter, men and women come to Merchants Quay in need of food, shelter and a kind word. It is often their first step towards safety and stability.
With your help, we can be there for everyone who walks through our doors this Christmas and throughout the cold months ahead.
