Update

We’ve been absolutely blown away by your generosity over the last few days – you’ve helped make sure the incredible team at Social Bite can give Scotland’s homeless a hot meal and a place to go over Christmas, which makes a huge difference to those in need. While we’re all enjoying the next few days at home with our families, we’d love you to keep spreading the word and donating – with your help we can continue to feed the country’s most vulnerable people throughout 2017. Thank you truly for your incredible support.

With a donation of just £5, you can make sure a homeless person gets a hot meal and somewhere to go on Christmas day.

We’re also asking for your help to fund The Social Bite Village to break the cycle of homelessness. This ground-breaking project will see a mini village being built in Edinburgh to provide accommodation, counselling, education, support and a job to help get homeless people back on their feet. Your donations will help someone escape homelessness and change their life forever.

The Social Bite Village

Social Bite are embarking on their biggest project to date, and they need your help to make it happen. In order to end the cycle of homelessness, Social Bite are creating a mini-village with 10 purpose-built homes to give 20 homeless people a safe space and all the support they need to get their lives back on track. They’ll be given emotional and mental support, education and advice on money management, health and fitness, as well as being given a job. This is a solution which will allow Scotland’s most vulnerable to get back on their feet. Once someone is able to move into their own home, a new resident will take their place in The Social Bite Village to begin their journey.
