Frontline Fund: Mental Health and Homelessness

Wednesday, January 25, 2023

We are excited to share details of a funding opportunity around the topic of mental health and homelessness.

St Martin-in-the-Fields Charity is committed to ensuring everyone has a safe place to call home and the support they need.

This funding programme has been designed in direct response to evidence and insights from organisations and frontline workers identifying challenges and gaps in provision for people experiencing homelessness accessing mental health support.

We are inviting proposals from organisations to provide targeted mental health support outside of healthcare settings for people who are struggling with their mental health and addiction or the effects of trauma and are at critical transition points in their housing journey.
