Meeting the challenge of transforming commercial buildings into havens of respect, warmth and energy can never be underestimated, this year Crisis is engaging a team of young homeless people to create somewhere they would like to spend Christmas.

Happy New Year

Hello and welcome to a brand new year. I hope everyone’s Christmas went well.

Its been a couple of weeks since I wrote last for which I do apologies but I have been awfully busy with the Crisis Open Christmas project. So I thought I should let you know how it went over the festive period at the centres. As you already know I was involved in the set-up of these centres. It was a hectice schedule but we got there in the end. Although plans kept getting changed which was annoying and staying calm was key. But by all pulling together the impossible was achieved.

Once the set up was done, it was time to start welcoming the guests. I had the fantastic but hard job of working in the kitchens. Seeing the guests enjoying the food and the space was a joy to watch and also made me feel good knowing that I played such a huge part in a lot of people having a good Christmas, which gave me a buzz and a sense of achievement. It was a great experience and I can’t wait to do it all again next year.
