Hot weather

A heatwave is here, and we’re expecting very high temperatures today.

This isn’t good news for everyone. While some of us are keeping cool with fans and enjoying iced drinks, others are suffering in the sun. We need your support to keep people safe this summer.

You can support people sleeping rough in extreme heat by:

  • Offering water and sunscreen
  • Contacting Streetlink to connect people to support
  • Support the Connection by donating to help people stay safe during this heatwave and in the days and months ahead.
  • Sunburn, dehydration and even heat stroke are real risks for people on the streets, so we are taking extra measures to help people experiencing homelessness in hot weather.

    Will you be there for people sleeping rough when they need you most?

    Our teams will be out providing people with sun cream, hats and bottled water if they can’t visit our centre. We will also be open to provide safety from the sun when it’s hottest outside.

    But we need your help.

    Please donate to our emergency appeal and help people experiencing homelessness to stay safe in the heat and get the support they need now and in the future.
