Help St Basil’s win £250,000!


St Basil’s is an outstanding Birmingham charity that provides expert advice and support to young homeless people in our city – and indeed helps them to avoid homelessness in the first place. The organisation provides housing advice, family mediation, emergency housing and supported accommodation.
St Basil’s will have completed 40 years of service in October this year and they have the opportunity to win £250,000 to extend the ever more needed services that they provide. And what’s more, you can help them to win it!
The money would come from Persimmon Homes, one of the country’s largest house builders, who are giving away a 3 bedroom home worth up to £250,000 and consolation prizes of £6,000 - also, as it happens, to celebrate their 40th birthday. But there are twenty-three other organisations hoping to win the home and crucially, who gets it will be decided by a public vote.
You can support St Basil’s by voting at persimmonhomes.com More than this, it's possible to vote once a day until the vote ends on the 27th of this month. Please do your bit to help this wonderful Birmingham charity!
