With the Covid-19 pandemic having left thousands of homeless people vulnerable to illness, accommodating these people is a priority for governments. Circular Economy Wales, in partnership with the Welsh Government, is seeking to produce guidance for the Social PfR network on how it can prepare ‘starter packs’ for homeless people moving into accommodation.
Starter packs may include furniture, clothing, bedding, rugs and electrical items. Through the PfR network, Circular Economy Wales hopes that the newly accommodated people will then be able to volunteer or work in Community Fridges, with payment in the form of CELYN.
