As well as supporting vulnerable people, Thames Reach hopes to influence policy-makers and public opinion on the issues that surround homelessness. Occasionally, we might debunk some of the myths.

See our recent campaigns below, or talk to us on twitter about what you think of our campaigns.

Thames Reach also responds to government policy and strategy consultations on issues surrounding homeless and vulnerable people.

Super-strength campaign

A campaign highlighting the serious damage to health, premature deaths and social devastation caused by super-strength drinks among marginalised and homeless people.

Old before their time

'Young olds' are vulnerable, middle-aged former rough sleepers who have the health problems of those twenty years older, and who often can't get the support they need.

Killing with kindness

If you give money to people who beg it will probably be spent on drugs. In most cases, you'll be helping them to buy the heroin and crack cocaine that could kill them.

Ending rough sleeping

Thames Reach is playing a big role in the Mayor’s drive to end rough sleeping in London – in 2009, Boris Johnson established the London Delivery Board to achieve this aim.
