Who we are
Caring in Bristol began in 1987 as ‘Caring at Christmas’ – a grassroots movement born from urgency, compassion, and community action. What started as a group of Bristolians opening doors to people facing homelessness at Christmas when all other services were shut down, has grown into a city-wide charity working all year round.
That activist heart still drives us. Every winter, our flagship Christmas project offers warmth, safety and dignity to hundreds, powered by an extraordinary team of volunteers. But our work doesn’t stop there...
Today, we focus on prevention, youth support and system change – tackling the root causes of homelessness with the same energy we bring to crisis intervention. We’re reaching people earlier, working alongside communities and partnering across the city to build lasting impact.
We remain an independent charity, powered by passionate staff and a commitment to trauma‑informed work. This sets us apart, allowing us to have meaningful relationships with individuals, communities and other services, both VCSE and statutory.
Our vision:
No one is homeless in our city.
Our mission:
Uniting Bristol to end homelessness.
Our values
We are curious... Homelessness interventions are most effective when we pay attention to what is going on around us. We invest time and energy in understanding the political context in which we operate, the ecosystem of local provision, and the needs of the different communities of Bristol. Curiosity is also vital on an individual level; with the people we support. We listen to their needs, aspirations and wishes and together create a pathway to lasting change.
We are creative... We express our passion, skills and experience by bringing the positive energy of change to every person and group that faces challenges around housing insecurity and homelessness. Every person’s situation is unique. We reject a one size fits all approach and utilise our agility to generate innovative solutions. We commit to fresh thinking and co-creating tailor‑made solutions that deliver a better future for both individuals and our city.
We are tenacious... We understand that many circumstances around housing insecurity and homelessness, both structural and personal, can be deeply entrenched. They take time and effort to solve. We also understand that the external environment can and does shift, sometimes unexpectedly. We aim to create lasting change rather than quick fixes. Our tenacious approach means working in a determined, strategic and methodical way. It enables us to remain focused on the end goal of lasting change. It inspires us to remain active and agile, so that we keep the people we work with and their developing needs at the centre of our actions. It ensures the changes which we create is both meaningful and authentic, to them and to the city.
We collaborate... A city where homelessness is ended depends on all of us. Collaboration here and now is the most effective way to achieve this in future. We are inspired by the power of community and connection. We work hard to create and hold safe and meaningful spaces for everyone involved with Caring in Bristol. Diverse backgrounds, experiences and perspectives point towards a stronger future where the barriers to a safe and secure home must be removed; we want to hear them, learn from them and act on them.
Application deadline: Sunday 30th August 2026, 23:59.
