Despite the increase in demand, times are financially tight for the charity and staff have been fundraising throughout the year to plug a funding gap.
Framework, which supports homeless people or those at risk of becoming homeless in Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire, Lincolnshire and Sheffield, said it was facing an extra bill of £1.1m a year in employer’s national insurance contributions.
It said it also faced an extra £700,000 to cover living wage increases.
Andrew Redfern, the charity’s chief executive, said: “The withdrawal at the stroke of a pen of £1.4bn from the charitable sector will cost a lot more than it saves as the impact on services will be dramatic.
“At Framework we have done the cost-saving measures – the only option now is to cut services if the organisation is to remain viable.”
