TAP for Bristol has raised over £30,000 since it launched just over a year ago

To mark World Homeless Day on Saturday 10 October a new TAP point has been installed at Bristol Temple Meads station, supported by Network Rail.

Celebrating TAP for Bristol’s first birthday, we are also making its second £10,000 donation of funds raised. Half of the money will be used to help homeless people in Bristol move into new, permanent homes and half will be used to support and prevent people at risk from losing their home. A portion of this donation will go to homelessness charity St Mungo’s who will use the funds to facilitate personal budgets of up to £500 for people to buy items for new homes, supporting them to move away from the streets for good.
