People struggling under a heavy load of severe problems - homelessness, reoffending, substance misuse and mental ill-health - are being given help to improve their lives through an investment of up to £100 million from the Big Lottery Fund (BIG).

BIG’s funding will help services come together to ensure they provide tailored support for people with multiple and complex needs who live chaotic lives.  

It is estimated that there are 60,000 adults in England with multiple needs* – many of whom lack effective contact with services that meet not just one, but all their needs. These multiple issues exacerbate each other and can lead to a downward spiral of ill-health and harm to the individuals themselves, family and society as a whole.
