Why run for The Connection?

The Connection at St Martin’s supports people experiencing homelessness in London to move away from, and stay off, the streets for good.

We get to know each person we work with and support them to tackle the challenges that led to homelessness — whether that’s poor mental health, isolation, addiction, trauma or unemployment.

From a warm welcome and hot meal to specialist advice and long-term support, we walk alongside people every step of the way towards a safer, more stable future.

What difference could your fundraising make?

  • £35 could provide 14 people experiencing homelessness with a hot meal, shower and clean clothes
  • £150 could fund 6 initial assessments for people newly experiencing homelessness, helping them access vital services and personalised support
  • £250 could help fund frontline support for people sleeping rough, including advice, recovery support and access to essential services
