Description of SE/Org:

We train people who have been affected by homelessness to become walking tour guides of their city.

Products or services sold:

Our friendly walking tours of Manchester showcase some of the city's historical landmarks and explore the social projects that make the city what it is. Our experienced tour guides, all of whom have been affected by homelessness, simply live and breathe the city, and offer their own personal insight into the past, present and future.

Mission Statement:
The tours invite the audience to understand more about Manchester’s powerful past and present but also reveal a personal side of the city affected by homelessness. The aim is to create a dialogue between the public and people affected by homelessness whilst simultaneously equipping the tour guides with valuable skills that can be used to expand their horizons. Sharing real stories of homelessness will raise public awareness about what it actually means to be homeless and encourage people to look at the streets differently.
