“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”.
