(UK, 1156211) Browse eventsWHC helps homeless or at-risk people in High Wycombe, Bucks to rebuild their lives by assisting them not only to find or keep accommodation but also to develop skills to achieve a stable lifestyle. Homelessness has a variety of causes, including family breakdown, unemployment, drug or alcohol abuse and poverty. It’s been said we are all two pay-checks away from homelessness. WHC is a community project of local churches. WHC’s first initiative was the Wycombe Winter Night Shelter (WWNS), which provides over 800 bed-nights to around 50 individuals annually. Since then, WHC has added year-round advice and resettlement services. WHC helps over 250 single homeless adults annually – largely those for whom the local authority has little responsibility. In the year to April 2012, WHC helped 87 find accommodation and prevented the eviction of 15 others. In over a thousand one-to-one support meetings each year, WHC’s housing crisis intervention team provides benefits and housing advice, referrals to specialist agencies, advocacy with official bodies, mediation with families and introductions to landlords or therapeutic communities. They help clients achieve outcomes relating to health, purposeful activity, resolving benefits issues and tackling harmful behaviours. WHC works in partnership with the local council, probation service, accommodation providers and other specialist agencies. The charity has about 300 committed volunteers who help run its services efficiently. There were over 2700 attendances at day sessions by around 240 people. It costs about £140,000 per year to provide WHC’s services. Please help if you can: donations of any size are welcome, but regular donations are especially valuable as they help with planning ahead. The photos in the gallery show aspects of WHC's work and a couple of shots to promote its forthcoming sleep-out event... More information about WHC’s work, current events and volunteering opportunities is available on the website.
