An address is more than just a location. If a person becomes homeless they also lose means of identification. But with @proxyaddress there is a solution...

Really enjoyed speaking with @g_kafka about the @ProxyAddress story so far. Kudos to George for his amazing write up and the decision to use @cafeartuk participants' beautiful images. 👏 #TechForGood #socialimpact #homelessness
Without an address, it's hard to exist. Architect @chrishildrey designed @ProxyAddress as a system to redistribute postal addresses to people experiencing homelessness. Now the challenge is adapting it to local councils.

Architects have a duty to use their skills to help solve societal problems even if it means thinking beyond designing buildings, ProxyAddress founder Chris Hildrey tells Dezeen in this interview.

.@LewishamCouncil is using a product called @ProxyAddress to match homeless individuals with virtual addresses tied to vacant buildings. This makes it easier for those experiencing homelessness to apply for jobs, get bank accounts, & access vital services.

The #homelessness issue is a massive, complex load to solve. But by seeking “solutions for now,” like providing a @ProxyAddress to help residents get back on their feet, local governments can find small wins that still improve the lives of their citizens.

Just been reading about @chrishildrey attempt to address the unaddressed by taking unused street addresses and assigning them to homeless people. A great idea within a great book from @Deirdre_Mask #geographyteacher

You know what’s cool? Ensuring homeless and others in unstable living situations can still access essential services. You know what else is cool? @ProxyAddress for doing this thing.
Thanks for helping me to learn about this @AudreyMatty!
