]]>An Australian charity called Beddown decided to take matters into their own hands by building shelters in vacant places at night. They paired up with Secure Parking, one of the largest car park operators, to launch a two-week trial in which they set up beds for those in need.
Norman McGillivray, the company’s founder thought of the idea after he was walking through an empty parking lot at night. In addition to providing homeless people with a safe place to sleep at night, they also have doctors, nurses, dentists, and hairdressers available.
On the company’s Instagram page they wrote, “We will look to get as close as we can to a proper comfortable bed to provide the homeless with a great night’s sleep is our ultimate goal. Sleep deprivation is a massive issue for our homeless, so being in a place that offers shelter and is safe, secure and comfortable we believe will have a big impact on those who use Beddown.”
