Every month at My Favourite Voucher Codes, we give our users a simple way to make a real difference — without having to spend a penny. Each month, we nominate four amazing UK charities, and the public votes for their favourite. The winning charity then receives 20% of our profits for the month!

This October, we’re proud to shine a light on Thames Reach, a London-based charity that’s dedicated to ending street homelessness and helping people rebuild their lives. Your vote could help them continue their life-changing work — and voting is free and easy to do!

Who Are Thames Reach?

Thames Reach is a leading homelessness charity working across London, with one powerful mission:

To help people escape homelessness and ensure that no one needs to sleep rough on the streets again.

For over 40 years, Thames Reach has been there for people at their lowest moments — those who have lost their homes, their support networks, or their health. Their work is all about offering practical help, compassion, and hope.

They provide everything from street outreach and emergency accommodation to employment support, mental health services, and long-term housing. Every person they support has their own story, and Thames Reach helps them take that first step towards stability, independence, and dignity.

In the last year alone, they supported over 15,000 people across London — helping them find housing, access healthcare, gain employment, and rebuild their confidence. That’s an incredible impact, but with homelessness still rising, their work has never been more urgent.

How Thames Reach Changes Lives

Thames Reach doesn’t just help people survive — they help them thrive. Their work spans every stage of recovery from homelessness:

1. Street Outreach

Thames Reach’s London Street Rescue teams head out every night to find people sleeping rough, offering them immediate help and a route into safety. They never give up on anyone — even if it takes multiple visits to build trust.

2. Accommodation & Supported Housing

They manage a range of hostels and supported housing projects, offering people a safe place to live while they rebuild their lives. Staff provide ongoing support to help residents gain independence and move on into permanent homes.

3. Prevention & Tenancy Sustainment

Thames Reach doesn’t just react to homelessness — they prevent it. Their Tenancy Sustainment Teams help people at risk of losing their homes by offering advice, advocacy, and one-to-one support. They make sure that once someone has a roof over their head, they can keep it.

4. Employment, Training & Wellbeing

A home is just the start. Thames Reach helps people find work, build confidence, and reconnect with their communities. From job training to mental health support, they provide the tools needed for long-term recovery.

5. Partnerships & Policy Work

The charity also partners with local councils, healthcare providers, and other organisations to tackle homelessness from every angle — and they campaign for lasting change so that fewer people fall through the cracks in future.

Why Thames Reach Needs Your Vote

Running a charity like Thames Reach takes constant effort and resources. While much of their funding goes toward essential frontline services, there’s always more that could be done — and that’s where your vote can make a huge difference.

If Thames Reach wins our October Charity Poll, they’ll receive 20% of our profits for the month. That donation could help fund:

• Extra outreach work to reach more rough sleepers across London.
   
• Move-on accommodation, giving people a safe space between the streets and independent living.
   
• Emergency supplies like warm clothing, toiletries, and bedding.
   
• Wellbeing and training programmes that empower people to build a future beyond homelessness.
   

Every pound helps Thames Reach be there when someone takes that first step off the streets. And all it takes from you is one quick click to vote.
