More about our mission:
For the past five years, Kineara has stood beside the Southwark community during the housing emergency. We have helped families avoid eviction, supported rough sleepers into homes, helped clients access benefits and understand their rights, and provided holistic support through some of life’s hardest moments such as unemployment, relationship breakdown, health struggles, and housing instability.
Through our Rent Support Programme (RSP+) and School Housing Advice Project, we became a bridge between families, schools, councils, landlords, and legal services, making sure no one had to navigate the housing system alone.
But now, these services are at immediate risk of ending. Funding for two of our Southwark projects ends in September 2026. Without urgent support, vulnerable families will lose access to essential housing advocacy and advice at a time when demand is already overwhelming local services. This event aims to raise £20,000 to keep these projects running.
£5 helps fund emergency housing support
£15 covers one housing advice session for a tenant facing eviction
£25 helps a family understand their housing rights before it’s too late
£525 keeps a caseworker serving the community for one week
£5,000 funds one month of the School Housing Advice Project
