About our cause
What is Ignis Lodge?
Ignis Lodge started with a simple belief: no one rebuilding their life should have to do it alone. Over the past year we’ve been designing a new kind of support. Our pathways bring housing, wellbeing, learning and work together in one place for veterans and young people leaving care. Now that work moves into our biggest step yet: creating the Midlands Campus, a rural home where people can finally feel safe, settle, and start again.
Our team comes from public service, education, care, and community leadership. We’ve spent the last year codesigning our services with veterans and care leavers across the West Midlands. It is this lived experiences which shapes everything we do. From how we welcome people on their first day to how we support them into work.
Why now?
Every day in the West Midlands, young people leaving care and veterans who once served our country are slipping through the cracks. Behind closed doors, in temporary beds, or on the streets, they face housing uncertainty, mental health challenges, and support systems that are stretched too thin. These are not isolated stories. They are part of a regional picture that demands urgent attention. This page brings together the latest evidence and lays bare the scale of unmet need.
The numbers are real. The impact is immediate. And the case for action is urgent.
Tonight, roughly 120 young people in the West Midlands have no safe, stable place to sleep. Every day, about 3–4 care leavers reach crisis point where they lose accommodation, trigger a safeguarding alert or face a mental-health emergency. They need action now, not tomorrow.
Tonight, around 110 veterans in the West Midlands have nowhere permanent to call home. 25–30 of them will bed down rough — in doorways, cars or makeshift shelters. Every day, about 40 veterans are living through a serious mental-health crisis, yet specialist help can still be 12–18 months away.
The Midlands Campus will provide 60 supported homes, nature-based wellbeing spaces, skills and employment pathways, and a social enterprise that generates its own income so support is stable, not dependent on endless grants. It’s a place designed to ignite brighter futures and it’s ready to move from plans into reality.
How you can help us?
Every pound raised brings the campus closer to opening its doors. Your help today will ensure we can stay on track and that the people who need us most can move in as soon as possible. This isn’t just about a site; it’s building stability, dignity, and community.
So whether you buy 1 ticket or 10 tickets, thank you for joining us in this journey.
Together we can ignite brighter futures.
