Showing solidarity with those experiencing homelessness.
The SVP would like to engage with our young people to raise
awareness of the issues surrounding homelessness in England
and Wales. This experience will not only give our young people a
better understanding of what thousands experience every day, it
will also give them the opportunity to turn their concern into
action by raising vital funds which enables the SVP to continue
to support the most vulnerable and socially excluded in our
communities.
