Donate in memory

Giving in memory of a loved one is a special way to celebrate their life and their hope for a fairer society. A society where everyone has a home. Home, in their name.

Home is everything. A place to spend time with the ones you love. A place to find peace, build dreams – and thrive. And thanks to in-memory donations, Shelter can help protect the right to home.

How your gift helps

A gift in your loved one's name helps us to continue to support people in urgent need and campaign for safe, secure, affordable housing for everyone.

Last year, over 45,000 people received support and advice from our emergency helpline, community hubs and live webchat.

If I didn’t have Shelter, I would still be in that emergency accommodation with cockroaches running up and down the walls. Just knowing even though I’m in this bad situation, I’m not in this bad situation alone because I’ve got Shelter, it has helped so much.
