Step up to end homelessness

This August, help walk 70,000 miles for the 7,000 people experiencing homelessness in South Australia

It takes the support of an entire community to make sure everybody has a safe place to sleep. This August, we’re aiming to collectively walk 70,000 miles for the 7,000 people experiencing homelessness in South Australia. Walk a mile or more a day during National Homelessness Week then join our amazing community event on Friday 11 August and walk the final mile together. Everyone deserves a warm bed and a fulfilling meal... will you help make that a reality?

You're walking in Liam's boots

Liam* had a tough childhood and was homeless from a young age. But as a determined, hard-working man, Liam started to build a better life – until a spinal injury at work left him with a permanent disability.

It would have knocked many people out for good… but Liam sought case management support at Hutt St Centre.

Despite a traumatic past, Liam’s story has a happy ending: he’s overcome addiction, mental health issues, and with the support of our generous community, regained control of his life.

“The positivity, encouragement and guidance I got at Hutt St Centre literally changed my life.”
