A message from John Bird

Thank you for taking the time to watch this important video from Big Issue Founder, John Bird.

We are so grateful for your ongoing support and hope you will continue to follow and support our efforts, as we transfer the work and expertise of the Big Issue Foundation to the new Big Issue Changing Lives Community Interest Company.

Thanks to support from people like you, over the last 30 years, we have supported over 100,000 vendors to earn over £150 million in collective income. In 2022, we saw a 10% YOY increase in vendor numbers due to the cost of living crisis. Our work is needed more than ever and without your support we cannot support vendors with access to critical sales and support services through our Frontline Service teams.  

Stay in touch. Be part of our solution to change lives through enterprise.
