That sleeping bag you no longer use or little things like baby wipes, chapsticks or mouthwash can make daily life a little more bearable for someone sleeping on the streets. Money donations help us fund all of our services or maybe you have some spare time and some skills that could benefit us? Perhaps you could consider fundraising for us or even volunteering?

We operate at the sharp end of the poverty problem, often dealing with people who have nothing more than the clothes they’re wearing. I’m a hands-on volunteer, so I get to see for myself just how much difference we make to some much less fortunate people. The things most of us take for granted are beyond the dreams of many of the people we serve. We constantly review every aspect of our service so that we can continuously improve and evolve.
Being a part of Giving Back Crawley is an absolute honour. The charity strives to support homeless members of our community who are vulnerable and in need. Every member of the GBC team gives not only their time but their love and compassion to the charity and its guests. Together we are an eclectic, joyful and often chaotic family and they have taught me so much about life and the sort of person that I want to be.
Volunteering has opened my eyes to the different types of homelessness that exist and the day to day problems experienced by those who fall within those types of homelessness. It’s a harsh reminder of how we can often take what we have in life for granted. Having witnessed what a difference we’ve been able to make to the lives of so many, I’m delighted to now have the opportunity, to work with the other Trustees to contribute towards and help shape the future development of GBC.
