Chris Hill first started this homeless appeal back in 2016 after spending a lot of time in London and seeing many homeless people struggling, then the following year he joined forces with Denise Mortimer and together created the Back to Kindness Homeless Rucksack Appeal supported by Paul Hayes and the Ministry of Sound - who offer their premises and staff for our volunteers to meet and distribute rucksacks of much-needed supplies including food, refreshments, clothing, sleeping bags and more.
With around 150+ volunteers taking part, and in excess of 1000+ rucksacks and sleeping bags distributed, this campaign takes us onto the streets, where we talk to homeless people, give them time, attention and listen non-judgmentally to their stories while providing the supplies they need to get through the difficult winter.
By joining this campaign, we want you to:
By registering below, you accept responsibility for yourself and everyone in your group during the exercise of collating the rucksacks and distributing them on the day.
