Homeless Charity Take Important Message to School Kids

People Who Have Struggled With Homelessness Will Help Spread Important Messages to 13 Year Olds

A feature on tomorrows evening edition of Granada Reports will highlight the hidden homeless problem on the Isle of Man.

Two locals who have in the past struggled with homelessness have put the show together, and after successfully turning their lives around they’re keen to get some important messages across to young people.

Aswell as tomorrows programme they've joined forces with local homeless charity Kemmyrk and will be taking their message to Schools around the Island.

They want to hammer home the importance of staying with your family for as long as possible and impress the grim reality of finding yourself homeless as a teenager.

Chief Executive Officer for Kemmyrk, Fiona Robinson, has said the life experience of those who have experienced homelessness first hand will be invaluable in getting the message across.
