“The funding from the ‘Quick Wins’ grant has enabled us
to do some really intense work with ex-homeless
people” says Tracy Hopkins, Chief Executive of Emmaus
Preston. “It has boosted their confidence as they are
often overlooked in local decision making and it has
made us all feel that our views count”.
