First Base Christmas Appeal

You can help people facing homelessness this winter.

We are raising funds for First Base, our day centre for people facing homelessness in Brighton and Hove. First Base provides practical essentials such as hot food, showers and clean dry clothes, alongside in-depth advice and support to move people away from homelessness for good.

With growing demand, rising costs and cuts to funding, your support is more crucial than ever. Please donate to our Christmas Appeal; even the smallest donation can make a big difference. Your gift could offer someone hope, dignity, and a path to a better future.

We provide a crucial service for some of the most vulnerable people in our community, including victims of trafficking and domestic violence. This Is YL’s story. YL was living in Vietnam with her parents when tragically, when she was just 14, they both died within a short time of … Read more
