2018 marked 50 years since a group of Bournemouth churches came together to address a housing crisis, forming what we now know as BCHA.
BCHA provides practical solutions to homelessness, unemployment, social exclusion and the need for more housing across the South of England.
We will tell 50 stories about “changemakers” across our communities, celebrate the fantastic work of our people and partners, and equip more people to find a way to make a difference – through donations, sponsorship and volunteering.
The campaign will demonstrate how investing in housing solutions can create opportunities for people across society. We will be focusing on five areas that are key to the work we do:
You are the reason that we can keep providing our vital services and continue to change lives. You could make a regular donation or do some fundraising. From a skydive to cycling along the coastal paths to channeling your inner Mary Berry and holding a bake sale there are lots of ways to get involved for both the sporty and non-sporty amongst you!

There are a number of ways you and your company can partner with us throughout the campaign by:

Become a volunteer – this could be spending a few hours helping in one of our services, working on a specific project such as gardening or fundraising.
We would like to extend our mentoring program so if you have a particular skill or expertise in an area that could benefit our customers or staff we would be very interested in hearing from you.

If you have a story about the positive change you have made in your own life, or a story about a colleague, friend or family member, then share it with the Bchangemakers community on our social media pages, using the hashtag #Bchangemakers.
