The need for people experiencing homelessness to have opportunities to express themselves is greater than ever. As we emerge from Covid-19 and Cardboard Citizens marks 30 years, we invite our community to come together to support people affected by homelessness to realise their full potential.

Situation
Covid-19 has been devastating for people experiencing homelessness, with lockdowns compounding physical and mental health issues, poverty, unemployment and isolation. Although the worst of the pandemic may be behind us, a crisis of homelessness is one of its legacies, and there is now an urgent need for consistent and varied support. Please stand by us so that people experiencing homelessness are empowered to write their next act.
Solution
For 30 years, Cardboard Citizens has proved that theatre can be a uniquely powerful tool for empowering people affected by homelessness. Through our year-round participation programme of workshops, masterclasses, qualifications and training, ranging from playwriting and performance skills to CV-writing and money management, we support people affected by homelessness to gain the confidence, skills and sense of community they need to make sustained life progress.
