Make content about: Sherif is rebuilding his life

After teaching English across the world, Sherif ended up living in a tent. Now he is rebuilding his life in Oxford.

This story

Sherif built an international career as an English teacher before returning to Britain, where agency work dried up and left him living in a tent. Support from a local day centre led him to an interview with Emmaus Oxford, where he was offered a room and work on furniture collection vans. He has since spent months clearing overgrown gardens and preparing for forklift training.
