On 9/11/15 visitors from Northampton Hope Centre met
second year Human Geographers to talk about the Centre’s work with local people
who are homeless or vulnerably housed.
Sarah (Day Centre Manager), Ambrose and
Jane provided valuable, and often really moving, insights for students who can
choose to do an assignment about homelessness as part of their second year
studies. They also outlined some of the opportunities for students to engage
with the organisation through volunteering, donations (socks urgently needed!),
or participation in fundraising events such as the Big Sleep Out.

Former student Brian Hinton also returned to the
University to talk about his dissertation research about youth homelessness,
conducted with the organisation St. Basil’s.
