The GW Hotel in Swindon has opened its doors to homeless people at risk of coronavirus after an appeal from Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, who last week called for all rough sleepers to be housed.
The management team at Great Western Hotel Swindon stepped in to assist Threshold Housing Link and Swindon Borough Council provide temporary shelter for Swindon’s rough sleepers.
A spokesperson for Threshold said ‘Not only did the Great Western Hotel step up, they have gone all out to make guests welcome.
‘They have done the same for the very hard working front-line outreach and rough sleeper teams, of Threshold Housing Link and Swindon Borough Council.
‘The gents at GW Hotel are also donating a hot feast of fresh cooked food each day for dinner and working with Threshold, SBC Rough Sleeper Navigators and all our combined friends to source and provide a hearty brunch each day as well!’
