St Martin-in-the-Fields Charity exists so that everyone has a safe place to call home.
We help people in difficult situations to find and keep a home. With the Vicar’s Relief Fund, we provide the emergency financial help needed to secure and keep somewhere to live. The small grants provided can transform a person’s circumstances within a matter of days.
Through our Frontline Network, we collaborate with specialist staff working in homelessness and provide access to funding for training, opportunities to share expertise and to find new and ways of providing meaningful support. We also help them to amplify their voices, via our Annual Frontline Workers Survey so their expertise is heard locally and at a national level in policy decisions about housing and homelessness.
Our Frontline Fund supports six innovative projects across the UK. These initiatives offer services like healthcare, legal advice, and mental health support to facilitate the transition out of homelessness. They help individuals obtain and sustain secure living arrangements. We also support The Connection at St Martin’s, to provide vital support through its day centre and accommodation for people who are rough sleeping in the capital.
Using Insight gained via our Annual Frontline Workers Survey, we have launched our Mental Health Fund in 2023, supporting three projects providing specialist mental health support for three years.

Fundraising Strategy
We are at a pivotal stage in our development and expect to enhance our trajectory of success to build further growth and opportunity. This will be achieved by growing and diversifying our income streams.
Building on the hugely successful BBC Radio 4 Christmas Appeal with St Martin-in-the-Fields Charity that will enter its 100th Anniversary in 2026 we aim to grow our individual giving, leadership giving and insight and supporter care teams. We will ensure we deliver excellent responsive and engagement with our supporters based upon their interests and motivations to deepen their commitment and maximise long term value. Our plans also include reaching out to new supporters through both the annual BBC Radio 4 Christmas Appeal and by developing year-round opportunities to donate and get involved.
If you feel you have the skills experience and passion to end homelessness in the UK, then we would love to hear from you!
