Great to hear @RachRJS from @street_storage on 'The Make a Difference Show' on @BBCCWR with @GabyRoslin; the only charity in Britain providing free safe and accessible storage for people experiencing homelessness following eviction, fleeing domestic violence or for any reason.

We couldn't not celebrate pancake day here at Street Storage! We did our “market research” and found people’s favourite pancake toppings beforehand and set up this little pancake station yesterday. 🚉🥞 It was non stop pancakes all day and we loved it 💙 #PancakeDay

For our 2024 newsletter round up, our Storage and Outreach Manager Caroline wrote an incredibly touching piece around the theme of connection. Here is some of what she wrote. To hear more #StoriesBehindTheStorage, sign up to our newsletter buff.ly/3XfHJ4e

Text says: I am reminded of FF who had a whole folder of art work amongst her belongings. Up until that point she had hunched shoulders and her eyes were heavy. Image in bottom left corner is of an open suitcase with clothes and a toiletries bag in. There is also some art work and paint palette.

Text says: When together we opened the folder she doubled in height and her eyes began to sparkle.I asked her more and she told me how her mother had taught her to paint as a little girl and that since her mother died, painting continued to be a huge connector for her to her mother.

1/3 @CamdenBrewery for the 4th time we ask you to explain why this was told to us by a Hampstead based choir wanting to raise funds for Street Storage last month. To date you have neither denied nor explained.
Quote: ".....the central marketing team at Camden Brewery weren't happy with our choice of charity. It is company policy not to support any charity that has potential links to alcohol abuse, so they reject any homelessness charities...."
