“We’re celebrating the first year of @homewardsuk!” The Prince and Princess of Wales’ official Instagram wrote in July 2024. “Coming soon: A @saatchi_gallery exhibition. An @itv documentary. As we work to demonstrate that it is possible to end homelessness, #Homewards is also about changing the narrative, improving the understanding of what it means to be homeless.”
William and the Royal Foundation launched Homewards in June 2023, a five-year program that addresses homelessness — and aims to show that it can be ended. The plan was implemented in six flagship locations across the U.K., each of which received up to £500,000 in seed funding.
“In a modern and progressive society, everyone should have a safe and secure home, be treated with dignity and given the support they need,” William said in a statement at the time. “Through Homewards, I want to make this a reality and over the next five years, give people across the U.K. hope that homelessness can be prevented when we collaborate.”
