Homeless charity Accumulate expands creative workshops across the UK

Accumulate, ‘The Arts School for the Homeless’ is expanding its creative services to hostels outside of London after £9,978 was awarded to them from The National Lottery Community Fund.

The charity works with eight hostels across London at the moment, but is soon to be expanding to hostels in Coventry, Brighton and Manchester totalling to around 20 hostels throughout the UK.

These workshops will be delivered digitally due to COVID-19 restrictions, starting in March for five months.

BUzz spoke to Marice Cumber, founder and director of Accumulate, about the expansion and why this move is important.
