Leave a gift in your will to Shelter – and give people change

Why leave a gift in your will
By including a gift in your will to Shelter, you can give people real change.
Every four minutes, a family in England becomes homeless. And government after government hasn't done enough.
It's time to take matters into our own hands. To call on the government to build a new generation of social homes. And make renting affordable for all.
Will you join us?
By leaving a gift in your will to Shelter, you can make sure that we'll be there for years to come – standing shoulder to shoulder with people as they fight for their housing rights.
And we won't give up. Not until everyone has a safe and secure place to call home. And future generations don't ever have to worry about becoming homeless.
Together, we can make real change happen.
What your gift could do
A new generation of social homes
Your gift could help bring about a historic renewal of social housing so that, in the future, everyone has a place to call home.
Fight for housing rights
Your gift could help our support services stand shoulder to shoulder with people as they fight for their housing rights, taking on injustices like unfair eviction.
Force through new rent reform laws
Your gift could help fuel the campaign for renters’ rights, and protect people from exploitation and unsafe housing.
Create a movement
Your gift could help galvanise a movement that defines a new era. A movement that forces the government to recognise the housing emergency – and take action to end it.
As a social worker, I supported families who were struggling. I’ve seen the housing emergency first hand.
It’s a disgrace. But I believe that we can make change happen – and that’s why I’ve included a gift in my will to Shelter.
