"Help Bristol's Homeless" and Jasper Thompson

This is the kind of things Bristolians can do :)

Help Bristol's Homeless is a social enterprise created by Jasper Thompson, providing temporary housing for Bristol's homeless community. 

The project recycles shipping containers, transforming them into temporary secure self contained homes. 

The project hopes to attract business and members of the community to sponsor the containers and become involved with the project. 

This social enterprise not only provides temporary homes for vulnerable people, but also offers them the opportunity to work on the project itself, providing a fixed address and the chance to learn new skills and integration back into the community.
