Hairdresser Stewart Roberts, 56, knows only too well the issues facing people dealing with substance abuse and homelessness.
So in 2014, he set out to make a difference. He went down to the Salvation Army in Romford, bringing his scissors, and offered to trim whoever was waiting in line for a hot meal. After a successful first session, other shelters soon started asking for Stewart to come and do the same for their clients.
Haircuts4Homeless was born.
Now he’s got 300 volunteers working in 45 UK locations and together, Haircuts4Homeless has issued over 35,000 free haircuts to rough sleepers all around the country.
On this episode Stewart talks openly and honestly to Ben and Alvin about his life, loves, fears, focus and happiness
