North East homelessness charity Emmaus North East have partnered with Mortimer Primary School in South Shields to design and put together a 2023 calendar to help raise money.
The charity set up a contest within the school called The Big Calendar Draw. Students were asked to draw images associated with the issues around homelessness and also including famous North East landmarks.
Emmaus North East support people who are experiencing homelessness. They aim to provide a place to stay, emotional and physical support, and work for as long as it is required. The charity, based in South Shields, was started in 2017 and has gone on to support over 100 people who have experienced homelessness.
