How Buses 4 Homeless are Helping People Get Back on Their Feet | The Russell Howard Hour

Dan Atkins started up Buses 4 Homeless to provide eating, sleeping, learning and wellbeing spaces on double decker buses to help people get back on their feet.

A MASSIVE THANKS!

We would like to say a HUGE thanks for the amazing feature from Russell Howard and the team at The Russell Howard Hour. We couldn’t be happier with the finished result and paints a very accurate picture of the entire process that we’ve gone through in order to create our Buses4Homeless project.

Although the feature is all about us we have to say a HUGE thanks to everyone who has been a part of our amazing Buses4Homeless project along the way.
