Giving you hope when you need it most
You can have the future you hope for
So many of us struggle with problems in life and feel like we have no one to turn to. We want to be heard and to be able to take back control of our own lives.

We believe every person should be given the opportunity to be heard.
At The Lantern Trust, we know that you want to start living again. In order to do that, you need to be able to see a better future. The problem is you don’t get given time to talk about what’s going on in your life which makes you feel stressed as help seems desperately out of reach.

Adrian’s Story
I arrived at the Lanterns Safe Sleep project homeless and didn’t know what to do. I was able to see a GP for the first time in ages and felt respected and listened to. I moved onto a hostel they run and have started gardening again. I am now living in my own flat and have hope for the future

Dan & Laura’s Story
We couldn’t afford to pay the deposit needed for our flat. The Lantern offered help when we had no more options

Bill’s story
Life had hit the buffers. I was sleeping on a beach with nowhere to go. The Lantern listened, housed me, and I began to see a future for myself. I am now back fishing and love where I live as it’s like a community where we support each other

Dave’s Story
I didn’t need lots of support. I just needed a place where I could go where I could chat through my concerns and needed help with my benefits
