Phil Spencer has been made a Member of the Order of the British Empire in the New Years Honours, in recognition of charitable services and his work as a patron of St Mungo’s.
The television presenter and journalist is a dedicated supporter of St Mungo’s, and became patron in 2010.
Throughout the years, Phil has continued to support and engage with St Mungo’s work through visits and volunteering at various projects and services, and by supporting numerous events and fundraising activities.
Phil Spencer is a renowned presenter, author, businessman, and property investor. As the co-presenter of the long-running Channel 4 series Location, Location, Location, he has become one of the most recognisable faces on British television and is widely regarded as an expert in all things property-related.
Emma Haddad, chief executive of St Mungo’s said: “We’d like to congratulate Phil Spencer for this most amazing achievement. He’s been a St Mungo’s patron since 2010 and within that time, he’s shown incredible passion and dedication.
“Throughout the years, Phil has continued to support and engage with St Mungo’s work through visits and volunteering at various projects and services, and by supporting numerous events and fundraising activities which have people affected by homelessness at their heart.
“Homelessness is unfortunately still such a stigmatised issue; recent research from St Mungo’s shows that many people are still unaware of the causes of homelessness and how they can help.
“Having such a recognisable figure as Phil Spencer supporting us in getting the message out there – that we can end homelessness for good – is integral to our work.
“We’re looking forward to continuing to work with Phil over 2026 and beyond, so that we can achieve more great things for people affected by homelessness.”
