On 28th August our VIP guest is Jasper Thompson, who in 2017 founded the charity Help Bristol's Homeless. Jasper and his wife decided that the best approach to homelessness was one of housing first, so he initially purchased some shipping containers which were converted into micro flats for people to live in. Their site in Bristol now has over 20 shipping containers converted into micro flats, a shower block, a laundry, a kitchen, dining room and an office. Jasper has received an honorary degree from the University of Bristol for his dedicated service to Bristol's homeless community. Jasper and his work were recently featured in the BBC2 television series Fabulous Feasts, hosted by the Great British Menu presenter Andi Oliver, to celebrate community-based projects throughout the country.
Join us for the incredible story of Jaspers work with the homeless at 11am.
Come along to this wonderful group, it’s free of charge as always!
