Campaign
The fantastic support of thousands of Crisis e-campaigners and the bravery of many of our homeless clients in standing up for change have helped Crisis achieve some key campaign successes in the last few years.
But the scandal of homelessness is still with us and so our campaigns go on to change the system and practices that let down so many homeless people when they most need help.
You can be a part of this by registering as a Crisis e-campaigner.

Stop the cuts from causing homelessness
Crisis is extremely concerned at the Coalition Government’s proposals to cut Housing Benefit. Already nearly half of claimants in the private rented sector already face a shortfall between their benefit and their rent. Now cuts will mean an average loss of £624 per year for people on Local Housing Allowance.

A private matter?
We're delighted to announce that the result of this campaign is a new law that protects tenants from sudden eviction when their landlord is repossessed.
Many,many thanks to all the e-campaigners who took at stand alongside Crisis and made this possible.

Get a voice, get a vote
Crisis will be working to ensure that all our homeless members who use the centre will be able to vote at the general election and make their views heard to local candidates for MP. We'll be holding a Housing and homelessness question time, with local candidates at our Newcastle centre, sending suggestions for solving homelessness from London members to candidates for MP and helping members to register to vote. contact Get more information at Crisis campaigns.
Expose the truth
A Crisis investigation has showed single homeless people turning to their council are often turned away without the help they need. Expose the truth aims to change this.
Housing benefits, not barriers
For years it's been acknowledged that housing benefit can stop people getting out of poverty and into employment.
Housing benefits, not barriers calls on all political parties to commit to reform which would make sure work always pays.
