Access to basic hygiene facilities, such as showers and laundry, is a fundamental human right that is often overlooked. Clean water and sanitation are essential for maintaining personal health and dignity. Unfortunately, many people, including those experiencing homelessness, do not have regular access to these facilities, which can lead to a host of health issues and social stigmatisation.
Promoting and ensuring access to showers and laundry services is a step towards addressing the broader issues of inequality and human rights. It's about providing individuals with the means to live with dignity and respect. Efforts to create more accessible hygiene facilities can make a significant difference in the lives of those in need.
Orange Sky brings attention to this critical issue and provides solutions to ensure everyone has access to basic hygiene. They also fulfill another human need, that of connection through genuine conversation…
Join me for an insightful interview with Nic, co-founder of Orange Sky Laundry. Discover how he and his mate Lucas transformed their vision into an extraordinary charity that goes beyond just providing laundry and shower services to those in need.
Listen to their inspiring journey of compassion and innovation.
