At LandAid, we don’t just give out capital grants. We also help charities to find free, high quality professional skills, services, equipment and advice, generously provided by our corporate pro bono partners.
Free professional support
LandAid’s Pro Bono Programme connects property professionals with charities and non-profits who share our mission: to end youth homelessness.
We match organisations with skilled experts across the built environment – from architects and planners to surveyors and engineers – providing free advice and services that would otherwise be out of reach. This support helps charities make the most of their spaces, budgets and capacity – and ultimately, reach more young people in need.
We focus our pro bono offer on charities, non-profits and community organisations that directly support young people experiencing or at risk of homelessness – or whose work plays a meaningful role in preventing it. That includes organisations tackling poverty, supporting care leavers, providing youth services, or improving access to mental health and employability support.
If this sounds like your organisation, we would love to hear from you. And, don’t forget to read our Top Tips to maximise the likelihood of your request being successfully matched with one or more of our corporate partners.

Free data
charities.connected is Vodafone’s scheme to tackle digital exclusion through providing connectivity to communities of people who lack access to the digital world. LandAid is working to increase access to this resource for people experiencing homelessness, who can often find it difficult to acquire the resources, tools and finances required to keep them digitally connected. If your organisation works with individuals experiencing homelessness you can benefit from the scheme.
Free technology
Technology is a vital communication lifeline. For young people who are facing homelessness, this is a continuing battle. Without the means to afford a PC, laptop, or tablet, many young people are unable to apply for jobs, undertake life skills and employability training, speak directly to support workers or connect with loved ones. LandAid is working with Computers 4 Charity to re-furbish and re-home surplus tech from our property partners, donating this to charities supporting young people facing homelessness.
