The charity is inviting people to wear a woolly hat, donate by texting WOOL22 £amount to 70070 and post a photo on social media.

Supporters can use the hashtags #WoollyHat2019 and #endinglocalhomelessness and link to Turning Tides, too.

In past years, workplaces have held cake sales to raise funds and collected warm clothing or food to help support the projects.
