Veezu provide free rides to Simon on the Streets charity

Veezu supports homeless charity with free rides for outreach staff.

Veezu is named as a corporate partner of Simon on the Streets, a charity offering support to individuals who are rough sleeping, sofa surfing and at risk of homelessness in Leeds and Bradford.

Simon on the Streets offers practical and emotional support to the homeless community in Leeds, with their services delivered on an outreach basis directly on the streets to reach individuals who may not be engaging with other services.

Veezu is supporting the charity as a 5-for-5 corporate partner, whereby they donate £500 every year for five years, helping the charity generate a valuable, longer-term, sustainable income. They are also offering free taxi rides to their outreach team, ensuring they can reach as many people as easily as possible.

Andy Sharpe, Senior Fundraiser at Simon on the Streets, said: “We’re so grateful to Veezu for their kind support, not only signing up as a 5-for-5 corporate partner but also through the free rides offer to the outreach staff. Being able to reach as many individuals as possible, and support them in their day-to-day lives, is our driving factor, and Veezu will help us help even more people who require our support.”

Donna Coombs, Hyperlocal Marketing Manager at Veezu, said: “We’re so pleased to be able to support Simon on the Streets, a charity that is close to my heart. The work they do in our local community is vital as the homeless population grows, and we’re proud to support them in any way we can.”
