The plan is to have a few speakers at the event, 
info tables, some music etc & then go off and 
distribute the food etc around the streets of 
London.. There will also be an opportunity for 
people to get more involved with Street Kitchens 
etc. and meet other service providers.
We ask people to donate food & essential items for our streets
We already have a sound system, the FBU fire 
engine etc & a number of prominent speakers/organisations/unions etc..

World Homeless (Action) Day was founded in 2010 
by Jon Glackin whilst he was living in Ireland, 
recognising that there was no global day to raise 
awareness of homelessness internationally in 
existence. Quickly a core group of people from 
across the Planet came together to make this day 
a reality. The day is now recognised in almost 
every country in the world. To date millions of 
pounds have been raised by local and 
international groups to continue their work by 
using the day to raise awareness and assist their streets.
The main ‘themes’ this year across the globe is 
jointly recognising the growing criminalisation 
of homeless people simply for being homeless and 
to promote the ‘Housing First’ model which has 
been proven time and time again to work. For more
