Glass Door is a charity for homeless people which covers the West and South West of London. We support them by putting together teams for their fundraising events such as their Autumn Sleepout or Spring London Walk, as seen in the images below.
Glass Door offers three main services:
Since 2005 the number of people sleeping rough has tripled. People become homeless though a myriad of reasons: loss of job, domestic violence, mental illness, relationship breakdown or death, eviction, cuts to benefits and lack council housing. It could happen to any of us. Glass Door provides people with a chance to eat meals, find clothes, take a shower and wash laundry – things we take for granted.
