We would like to thank Chris Webb MP for mentioning us in Parliament and recognising the work that our Charities staff and volunteers do for our community and for our Town. Also mentioning two other great Charities in Streetlife and Helping Hearts - Fylde, Wyre and Blackpool. All working together with other Charities too, meeting regularly with Blackpool Councils Housing Options and other organisations to support our local rough sleeping and homeless community.
