New London Awards 2022 Winner - Driving for Change

Winner of the COMMUNITY PRIZE

The number of rough sleepers has risen exponentially over the past 18 months, with an estimated 130,000 households made homeless because of the Covid-19 pandemic. 

In a world first, the Driving for Change initiative is an all-in-one direct intervention service providing those experiencing homelessness access to free GP consultations, haircuts, dental care, digital and financial literacy training, support opening a bank account where appropriate, employment support, shower facilities, therapy assessments, and essential everyday items. 

Two London buses have been repurposed, transforming them into support assistance for the Change Please Foundation, a social enterprise, which supports people experiencing homelessness.
