We’re proud to announce that actor Jack Downham has joined Homeless House as our ambassador.
Jack has spent the past 16 years playing Noah Dingle in Emmerdale, growing up on screen in one of Britain’s longest-running dramas. But this World Homeless Day, he’s stepping into a new role – one that isn’t scripted, because homelessness isn’t entertainment. It’s a crisis.
Last year, 1,611 people died homeless in the UK. Eleven were children. Four were babies. These aren’t characters. They’re lives lost in real time, in real systems that failed to hold them.
At Homeless House, we’re building something different: trauma-informed, youth-led systems that actually work. Systems that centre lived experience, emotional safety, and radical clarity. Systems that don’t just patch over crisis, they rewrite the code.
Jack is standing with us to help make that vision real. His support brings visibility, credibility, and a powerful reminder that change starts when we stop looking away.
We’re not asking for sympathy. We’re asking for solidarity. This World Homeless Day, we invite you to stand with us, to share, support, and help us build systems that hold.
The real story is still being written, and together, we can change the ending.
