Wonderful news! It is so heartening to hear that a multi agency approach is being applied to this innovative project. Well done to all involved and very best wishes to you all. I will be in touch shortly to offer my support.

Although I am not homeless myself but if I were, I nice warm and cosy bed in something a nicely laid out as this would be a blessing in disguise. So I take my hat off to Kevin Newton, for putting so much thought and dedication into providing a much needed service for those of us who are less fortunate through no fault of our own. How… Read more »

Having previously met Kevin Newton, his passion + vision for this was tremendous. How lovely to see this come to fruition. How wonderful too for those who will benefit from this mans dedication + hard work. It isn’t just about giving shelter to those in need, they will also be directed to a multitude of organisations to help them get back on their feet. None of us… Read more »

Kevin is an inspiration to us all and what he and those working with him have achieved here is nothing short of extraordinary. I’ll be very surprised if this model isn’t adopted in other areas to address the particular problems faced by rough sleepers.

SS,Great project can you explain the comment in the IWCP Online report that everybody who wants to sleep on the bus will have to register with the council and do a voluntary day’s work, or is that wrong?

The Bus Shelter IOW is to relieve the need for anyone to sleep rough on the Isle of Wight. By presenting themselves at the council Housing department, it can be assessed if they are eligible for temporary accommodation on the bus or whether other accommodation is more suitable. All our guests are encouraged when ready to participate in either work placement or voluntary work to enable them… Read more »

Congratulations Kevin, someone who makes things happen, rather than just wringing his hands like so many do. You are an inspiration Sir. I really hope it works, the causes of homelessness are usually complex, alcohol, mental health being the most obvious causes. I believe homeless people can be difficult to help, but that shouldn’t stop us from trying, particularly at this time of year when it’s so… Read more »

How fabulous is Kevin and all who has helped make this a reality.
If this idea could be spread throughout the Uk, using old vehicles, wouldn’t it be fabulous? Such a simple idea put into practice… Well done Kevin.

Thank you Kevin, Julia, and others involved; really worthwhile work which deserves government support for continuing and expanding this much needed innovation. Which also reminds me that government policies are doing more to harm than to help the situation.

Everyone can do something to help that combined would make a huge difference; such as: dropping off a pack of baked beans, eggs, bacon, bread, milk, butter and so on. just buy something for the Bus Shelter in the weekly shop. supermarkets could help by donating non perishables; coffee, tea, etc. even having a bin for customers to contribute food specifically for the bus shelter. If they… Read more »

Dear Kevin, Through a long and complicated process I have ended up homeless(off and on for 14 years)this situation seems to be horribly on going. On Saturday (21/1/17) I had a chat with a lady who is thoroughly in respect of you and the work you are doing and lives on the Isle of White. Despite my current position I am well educated and a fully qualified… Read more »
