Charity of the Year

A Charity of the Year partnership with Changing Lives is about coming together and making a difference.

Partner together and change lives

A Charity of the Year partnership with Changing Lives is about coming together and making a difference.

It connects your business to our services right at the frontline, supporting people through homelessness, addiction, domestic abuse, and the many challenges that come with them. 

Your team becomes part of that journey too, whether that’s through fundraising, volunteering, or simply learning more about what people are going through and how we can support them to move forward. 

It’s not just a one-off, it’s a year of shared action, meaningful connections, and a real sense of purpose.

Nominating Changing Lives 

If you are putting Changing Lives forward as your organisation’s Charity of the Year, here is a starting point you can use:

Changing Lives supports people facing the most challenging circumstances to make positive and lasting change in their lives.

They work across more than 120 projects in England, supporting around 14,000 people each year through housing, recovery, women’s services, criminal justice and employment.

Their approach is long term. They stay alongside people as they rebuild their lives, supported by teams with real experience, including staff who have used similar services themselves.

Choosing Changing Lives means supporting practical, frontline work that responds to the reality of homelessness and the challenges that come with it.
