This summer, YOU can join Extern in the race to end homelessness and together we can change lives. Read more
Each year we speak up for and support more than 19,500 children, young people, individuals and families. We also support, house, and advise people who are homeless or facing homelessness, refugees, the Traveller community, people living with an offending past, those living with the impact of suicide and those dealing with mental health and drug and alcohol issues, to change their lives.
Please support our Roscor campaign and help us change young lives
We have lots of fun ideas to help you fundraise. Please get in touch.
