Rhythms of Life International is a local charity reliant on support from volunteers and donors to provide food for the homeless and the very poor. But people need more than sustenance: they need solutions, advice and support.
That is why we want to start providing advice and IT training for the homeless people we work with. They stand a better chance at rebuilding their lives if, as well as food, we can offer them advice on how to get a job or how to beat drug and alcohol addiction. Many of the homeless people we deal with have lived on the streets since their teenage years and badly need this extra help.
The number of people living on the streets in the UK has risen dramatically in recent years. Recent government statistics show that for the first three months of 2011, the number of homeless people in England rose by 18% compared to last year.
At a local level we have noticed a huge rise in the number of people coming to us for food, which is why we need regular or one-off donations to help us continue and expand our work.
