Homelessness and rough sleeping in London.

Robert and Kath work for Westminster City Council and St Mungo’s Charity. Their mission is simple: to end rough sleeping in Westminster. But their challenge is immense, especially in this time of Coronavirus. They talk vividly about the difference our handset donations are making to them every day. And Liz, who runs the Tesco Mobile donation scheme, talks about her new perspective on the extraordinary difference our work is making to homeless people in London and beyond. Hosted on Acast.

Addiction - the journey to recovery

Rob works with Addiction NI in Belfast - a harm reduction charity that supports people dependent on drugs and alcohol. Rob describes not just how the phones we’ve donated have made a difference, but his own personal journey too and the unique perspective it's given him when it comes to supporting people whose habits control their lives and reducing the stigma attached to addiction.

The British Red Cross - young refugees

Anna leads regular sessions for the British Red Cross in London for young refugees in which they create a safe, welcoming space for young people to meet, talk and learn about how to succeed in adapting to their new life in the UK. Anna talks about the challenges these young people have faced to reach the UK, the importance of creativity when it comes to self-expression and how important connection is to develop confidence and skills.

Helping victims of domestic abuse

Zoe, a Detective Sergeant in Wales and Susie, who works for Angus Women Aid in Scotland, both received phones and airtime from Tesco Mobile to help their organisations. They talk about the crucial role that phones give in helping victims to regain control and the critical need for connection in isolating times. What’s not surprising - given that their work includes supporting women and children who’ve become victims of domestic abuse - is that they’re both hugely experienced and compassionate people. What might come as a surprise is their resourcefulness, creativity, the source of their inspiration and their extraordinary optimism.

Helping end homelessness, together with Crisis

There are currently over 170,000 families and individuals in the UK without a permanent home and many more at risk. Matt had his own short experience of being homeless and as a result he’s passionate about making homelessness a thing of the past. In this conversation he shares his perspective on how and why attitudes need to change, the impact of the digital divide and why caring for human connection lies at the heart of the partnership.
