About Us
Who Are We
Transition Homeless Project is a registered charity supporting individuals experiencing poverty, housing insecurity, homelessness, or rough sleeping. With a strong focus on prevention, we work to intervene early — long before anyone reaches crisis point.
Operating across North West London, we provide practical support, advice, and advocacy that empowers people to stabilise their lives and build sustainable futures. Our team works alongside adults and young people, offering guidance that builds confidence, strengthens resilience, and opens pathways to secure, sustainable, independent living within their communities.
Our work is rooted in dignity, compassion, and community impact. By addressing the underlying causes of poverty and homelessness, we help people move from vulnerability to stability, and from crisis to opportunity.
Our Mission
- Eliminating homelessness on the Streets – We focus on early intervention to avoid anyone reaching crisis point.
- Supporting Those at Risk of Homelessness – Our services are preventative, designed to address the specific needs of individuals, helping them navigate financial or housing difficulties before they escalate.
-
Providing Hot Meals – We offer nourishing food serving hot meals at our soup kitchen. Sponsored by Mum's Kitchen and Mr Patty.
- Assisting Vulnerable Groups – We address the challenges care leavers and those leaving the prison service experience, such as poor mental health and barriers to employment. We support communities by offering services specifically aimed to empower individuals and create opportunities for a brighter future.
Through compassionate care and tailored services, Transition Homeless Project is dedicated to fostering relationships that make a lasting difference in the lives of those in poverty or experiencing homelessness.
We work collaboratively with other local community groups and local councils to break the cycle of poverty and homelessness.
Why We Need Your Help
Homelessness can happen to anyone
The rising cost of living and energy prices have left many struggling to survive. In London alone:
- Over 187,000 people are homeless (Shelter, December 2024).
- 24.8% of homeless individuals in England and Wales are based in London.
- People aged 25 and under make up 9% of those sleeping rough in the capital.
- In 2024 (July – September) approximately 798 women and 3,788 men were reported rough sleeping in London (CHAIN Report 2025).
- The average age of death for people experiencing homelessness is 45 for men and 43 for women (Office of National Statistics).
Your support can help us meet the growing demand for hot meals, food banks, and guidance services.
