Campaign idea: Steve is living independently
After sleeping in a vandalised car for two months, Steve rebuilt his confidence and now lives independently.
This story
After a relationship ended, Steve became homeless and spent two freezing months sleeping in a car with broken windows covered by pizza boxes. After losing his job, local street pastors helped him join Emmaus Leicestershire & Rutland, where he lived for six years, received counselling, and took on roles in the shop and van. He has since moved on and is now living independently.
