A Leeds dad-of-two who was homeless less than five years ago has set up a successful business to give back to the community.
Matthew Colley served in the Royal Dragoon Guards and was made homeless after the breakdown of the relationship with the mother of his two children. He spent a long time going from sofa to sofa.
He got in contact with the council but was put on a long waiting list for a council flat, meaning he was spending a lot of time at his mother's house with his two children, who he had split custody of. Matthew was suffering from poor mental health at the time and so got in contact the Armed Forces charity SSAFA.
