CRASH Award

Between 2000 and 2004 the CRASH Award of £1,000, made available to CRASH by an anonymous donor, was made annually to the author of the best piece of homelessness research published each year.

The CRASH Award programme is now complete and CRASH is working with the Homeless Link Research Forum to develop new ways to support the development of effective research in the sector.
