We're inviting you to step up to the challenge of tackling homelessness and to walk with us at our Summer Fundraising Event.
When: 8th June, 11am
Where: Hyde Park
​
Those who are homeless frequently walk between 10 and 15 miles each day just to meet their basic needs of food, support and shelter, whilst the average Londoner walks less than 1.
We're inviting you to walk with us, raising awareness as part of a very visible group, of all those whose lives are dictated by homelessness. From May 25th, in the two weeks leading up to the BIG WALK, we're also inviting all participants to ditch their commute or walk to school and to use the replacement walking time to reflect on all the people for whom walking miles is an every day, exhausting reality.
Find out more on our event page and get involved, all are welcome from 9-100 years' old.
Volunteer with us
Whether you have lots of time to give regularly, or just a bit now and then, it would make the world of difference to have you on board.
We are looking for generalist volunteers, as well as experts in the areas of housing law, and mental health.
Volunteers do things like serve food at the drop in, chat to homeless guests and find out their needs, and some become specialist mentors who work more closely to provide support.
Fundraise for us or support a particular programme
If you want to be one of the powerhouses behind what we do or are passionate about a particular aspect of the services we offer, you can fundraise for us or sponsor a specific programme or intervention.
Download our brochure below to find out about each area that you can get involved in supporting, and get in touch with a member of the team to organise your donation and involvement.
Donate now
Any one off sum you are generous enough to give makes a huge difference to what RESTART can offer.
We read all the kind messages that come in with JustGiving donations, so do tell us who you are and why you're supporting us.

Young People - ways to get involved
Children of any age, and young adults, can get involved in a range of ways. Whether it's attending an event that is open to their age bracket (Sleepout 11+ with an adult, BIG WALK any age with an adult), or promoting these events and running fundraising activities in the community and school settings, we welcome young people to get involved in the way that's right for them.
Young supporters can achieve the RESTART Charity Champion Award or become a RESTART Ambassador.
We welcome young volunteers at the Drop In to volunteer alongside a parent on specific dates. Get in touch with tess@restartlives.org to find out more about dates and training available.
