Business Action on Homelessness


BAOH Client in Awards Success

Mohammed Al Madhi, ex- Ready for Work client and now an employee at Royal Mail, scooped the 'Individual of the Year' award at the Greater Manchester Employee Coalition Awards 2009.

Business Action on Homelessness supports homeless people to gain and sustain employment and actively campaigns for the removal of barriers to work. We believe that work is the best route out of homelessness and poverty and that businesses often overlook the talents of people with a homeless background.
