Settle is celebrating today after being awarded a 5 year grant from The National Lottery Community Fund, the largest funder of community activity in the UK.

Settle will use the National Lottery funding to prevent young people from becoming homeless in London through our programmes. To do this, we will grow our team, partnerships and operations to maximise our impact over the coming years.

Settle’s Chief Executive Rich Grahame said: “We are delighted to receive this grant from the National Lottery that will support our work over the next 5 years. Since we emerged from the first lockdown in mid-2020, we have seen a sustained surge in demand for our work with young people facing an array of challenges. This funding will enable us to scale our work to prevent hundreds of young people from becoming homeless.”

We’d like to thank The National Lottery Community Fund for continuing to support our work to break the cycle of youth homelessness.
