Quddous Ahmed spent five months on the streets in 2015. In those five months he was racially abused, hit with a rock and his sleeping bag was set on fire. His struggles during homelessness inspired him to create Hounslow Soup Kitchen (HSK).

HSK’s work involves running outreach teams, soup kitchens, breakfast clubs and other charitable schemes in Hounslow. Ahmed’s most recent project is an interactive map available on the HSK website. Speaking to the BBC, Ahmed explained the map “centralises all the services that are available and free and open to the homeless without any judgement.”
