I am now working at Greystones helping on a voluntary basis I intend to spend some substantial time with them getting to know the real situation with homeless people and rough sleepers, some of the staff I am working with are in these photos and some of the properties now being converted will be an office base and extra flats to help more people. The ABEN scheme is a bed every night now being run by Greystones with Tameside council thanks to an initiative from our Gtr Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham , There are beds in Hyde, Ashton and Audenshaw I will be doing regular updates on my experience at Greystones.
