Making a Difference
As we launch the 2025 Radio 4 Christmas Appeal with St Martin-in-the-Fields Charity, Hugh Dennis reports on some lives changed since last year's appeal, thanks to your donations.
Hugh Dennis reports on how donations to the Radio 4 Christmas Appeal with St Martin-in-the-Fields Charity have helped people experiencing, or who are at risk of, homelessness. Like Gary from North Shields, who is now settled into a flat in time to spend Christmas with his children. Mensah - not his real name - who last year spent time sleeping rough in the capital, and Devon in Oxford who, thanks to the stability a home has brought, is thriving at work.
The Radio 4 Appeal features a new charity every week.
Each appeal then runs on Radio 4 from Sunday 0755 for 7 days.
