ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½less bus hits the road in Coventry

Available for over a year

A new project aimed at tackling homelessness in Coventry has hit the road. The Ur Bus is a double-decker, with seven sleeping pods on board, and a meeting place downstairs to help get rough sleepers back on the right track. Aiden Feeney came up with the idea to convert the vehicle and said "we identified an issue with the homeless and had the idea to renovate a double-decker bus to help get people to the next step of finding a home." Former Coventry City player Kirk Stephens is an ambassador for the project and said he wanted to "give back" to the city.
