Rough sleeping in Manchester has risen by 40% in the last 12 months alone. In 2010, there were 7 people recorded sleeping rough in the city centre. That figure had risen to 94 in 2017, and it doesn’t account for those sleeping rough that weren’t recorded.

Although I’m not a CEO, I want to play my part in helping those affected find their way into comfortable, safe accommodation, so they can start afresh in any way possible.
