Frequently asked questions
-
Are you a charity?

We're also registered with the Fundraising Regulator, a voluntary scheme for charities committed to legal, open, honest an respectful fundraising -
Can I volunteer?

-
Why should I leave a message of support?
For many of the people we support, Christmas is a lonely and isolating time. Many have lost contact with their friends and family. We're doing everything we can to support them, but your message can show them someone out there (a stranger like you!) does care.

Where does the money go?
Every item in this store represents meals and emergency support provided by HARP in Essex. We see immense demand for our services all year round, especially at Christmas time when the streets are freezing cold. Your donation (and any Gift Aid contribution) will help us provide hot meals, emergency accommodation, and vital support to people in need. To ensure we can respond to urgent needs as they arise, we may allocate funds across our meal and emergency support services where they're needed most. Whatever happens, we promise that 100% of your donation will be used to help people experiencing homelessness in Essex.
