During the festive months of November and December, participating StreetSmart restaurants will add a voluntary £1 donation to diners’ bills, with all the proceeds going to support homelessness projects within the local area.
StreetSmart has raised more than £10m since its foundation in 1998 and has benefited more than 50 homelessness charities each year, with funds supporting services such as the creation of beds, housing advice, and training and job support.
