But thanks to Nick and his volunteers - including EastEnders' Natalie Cassidy, Scott Maslen and Gillian Wright - it now has a brand new home.
Viewers of the BBC One show were left crying after The Butterfly Effect's founder Angie saw her charity's base for the first time.

"It's more than we ever dreamed of."
She added: "There's no way we could have done this. We were just going to lick it a lick of paint and crack on."
Scott, who plays Jack Branning, told Angie: "You've had a terrible situation happen to you and you've turned the situation into this moment, which is incredible."
Writing on X, formerly know as Twitter, one fan admitted: "Got me tearing up!"
Another added: "Yup, the @DIYSOS#Eastenders Special is really delivering… In tears already - and I’m only 15 mins in…"
And a third wrote: "What amazing cause on a special show diy sos Eastenders. Did make me teary. Butterfly Effect's new place looks amazing love it. Well done everyone!"

Zaraah Abrahams and Perry Fenwick also donned builders' hardhats and did their bit to help The Butterfly Effect.
