Give people change, with a gift in your will to Shelter
We’re in a housing emergency. We estimate that 17.5 million people across the UK are now living in the grip of it. And we’ll never properly solve it through small changes.
We need the type of change that will define a new era – one where millions of people can escape the damp and the cold and find a safe place to call home.
You can give people that change with a gift in your will.

Michael knows we need big change
Michael was the manager of a pub. It gave him an income and a roof over his head. But then he got ill and lost his home. That’s when he contacted Shelter. Now he’s got a safe place to live and hope for the future.
Millions of people in the UK today are being denied a place to call home. Gifts in wills have the power to give people real change – the kind that could define a new era.
If you want to make big change happen, leave a gift to Shelter in your will.
