Registered Charity No: 1170009 (England & Wales).
Accumulate is The Art School for the Homeless.
We improve the wellbeing and futures of young people who are affected by homelessness by providing creative workshops and opportunities in art, photography, creative writing, film, fashion and other creative disciplines.
Our activities support people on the margins of society; enabling them to increase their confidence, skills and self-value and, in the longer term, facilitating them to continue their journey into training, education and employment, including funded scholarships on university foundation courses and industry work placements.
We work in partnership with top level organisations to ensure that our participants receive the best quality tuition and introduction into work or education. These partners include University of the Arts London, The Barbican, Saatchi Gallery, Tate Britain, Penguin, Adobe and Audible who provide introductions to their networks and progression routes.
Your legacy gift will help us with our day to day operations (running workshops and learning opportunities) or fund a scholarship for one of our participants to attend an access to university course. A small amount goes a long way with our charity and we are grateful for a gift of any size. If you choose us, your gift will bring a positive impact to a homeless person - be it mentally by giving them opportunities to socialise and learn, or physically by giving them somewhere safe, warm and comfortable or providing a hot meal. Your gift will mean that a young homeless person will be given all the support they need to improve their confidence and self worth so that they can make a lasting change to their lives.
