My dad grew up in Whitehawk, I grew up in Whitehawk. I work in Whitehawk The Crew Club and Class Divide. The place is amazing but the reality is stark. Keeping people poor is an act of violence. #Brighton is not a fair city. The UK is deeply unequal.

Listening to people with experience and empowering them to change systems will end homelessness and the suffering it causes. The #CommonAmbition Steering Group funded by The Health Foundation are here to show #BrightonHove the way #WorldHomelessDay #EndHomelesness
Brilliant work here from CardMedic and University Hospitals Sussex So many crucial moments on people's healthcare journeys when attending to communication needs could transform health outcomes especially for people experiencing #inequalities
In 2021 we gathered feedback on people’s experiences of #HomelessHealthcare for our co-production project, #CommonAmbition . We developed a collaborative analysis approach, standing shoulder to shoulder with the person relating their experience. zcu.io/4fu7
