Campaign idea: Andy found a home of his own
Andy spent years caring for others before becoming homeless himself, but found a place to rebuild and a home of his own.
This story
Andy worked as a residential support worker in Blackpool, but after repeated burglaries forced him to give up his tenancy, he found himself without a home. In his sixties and sofa-surfing, he arrived in Bolton with a small bag of belongings and joined the Emmaus community. During his stay he worked in the warehouse, completed new training modules, and has now secured his own flat.
What your brand could do
Provide the furniture, homewares and decorating supplies to help Andy set up his new flat from scratch.
