About us

Centrepoint is the UK’s leading charity for homeless young people. Together with our partners we support over 14,000 16-25 year olds into a home and a job every year. 

Last year a staggering 121,000 young people in the UK were homeless or at risk of homelessness. This needs to change.

On Sunday 2 October 2022 our amazing Centrepoint runners will take on the TCS London Marathon, one of the worlds great marathons with an impossible to beat atmosphere. The money raised will help support homeless young people into a brighter future.

Why we need your help

We’re hoping to raise £45,000 from the 2022 TCS London Marathon to help give homeless young people a safe place to stay so they can focus on their future.
