About Shelter

A home is a fundamental human need, as essential as education or healthcare. Yet millions of people across Britain struggle on a daily basis with homelessness, bad housing conditions, soaring rents, discrimination and the threat of eviction. So, we are striving for change, with individuals, in communities, across society, and leading the way to a safe home. We need ambitious, best-in-class individuals who are passionate about our cause to join us at this exciting time. This is your chance to play a part in the fundamental change we are striving to achieve.

At Shelter we are united by our purpose to defend the right to a safe home. Our enemy is the social injustice at the core of the escalating housing emergency. We believe that to win that fight, we must be representative of the people we are here to help and those who support our movement for change. In all our people decisions, we take pride in being inclusive, fair, equitable and transparent.

We have committed to combat racism both within and outside Shelter and welcome you on our journey to becoming a truly anti-racist organisation.

The Change Foundation

The Change Foundation is an award-winning charity that uses sport to change the lives of marginalised young people.  Throughout the past 42-years we have successfully delivered sport and mentoring intervention programmes to change the lives of vulnerable young people living in the UK and abroad. 

We were born in 1981 following the Brixton Riots in London.  Originally called the London Community Cricket Association, we used cricket as a tool to promote community cohesion and peace within the Lambeth community.  Throughout the next four decades we have developed an array of innovative sport and social change programmes by listening to the voices of our young people.  These range from Street Elite, working with young people on the edge of gangs and criminality to Fencing for Change, using fencing to work with young people with a learning disability. 

Our Mission is to change the lives of marginalised young people through the power of sport.
