One in seven children in Britain lives in rundown, damp or overcrowded housing. Shelter, the housing and homelessness charity, provides services to support them, and fights to improve their education, health and wellbeing.

You can help Shelter through Architect in the House. By offering consultations to homeowners in return for their donation to Shelter, you'll be helping someone improve their home – and helping Shelter improve the state of housing for the next generation. Many practices also find the scheme leads to future commissions.
Over the past 12 years, RIBA chartered members have raised more than £700,000 for Shelter. Registration is open until 8 July 2008 at www.architectinthehouse.org.uk|. You will also receive discounts at www.ribabookshops.com|.
