Christmas Winter Clothing Appeal
Bring warmth this winter - gift clothing to those in need.
Many young people and adults arrive at Blue Triangle with only the clothes on their back. You can provide them with the essentials they need to keep warm this Christmas and beyond.
Donate to Blue Triangle’s Christmas Winter Clothing Appeal today.
You’ll be helping people like Amy from Falkirk who was suddenly made homeless through no fault of her own and came to Blue Triangle desperately in need of warm clothing.
Case Study

"One fond memory from my stay at Blue Triangle would be at Christmas time when I first arrived as I got to help decorate the Christmas tree..."

Homelessness in Scotland
Homelessness in Scotland has increased alarmingly since 2017/18, surpassing pre-pandemic levels. This has been driven by several causes, including a cost-of-living crisis that has pushed lower-income people into deep poverty and a difficult housing sector with rising prices.
In Scotland, the number of people sleeping rough, living in hostels and using unsuitable temporary accommodation such as B&Bs or sleeping in cars is predicted to rise by a third in the next two years.
