Joshua Coombes, 'Hairdresser to the Homeless' on: Doing something for nothing

Meet Joshua Coombes, 'Hairdresser to the Homeless'. In 2015, while working at a London hair salon, he took to the streets with his scissors to build relationships and offer haircuts to people experiencing homelessness in the capital. He began posting transformative images on social media to amplify the voices of those he met. The stories that accompanied these photos resonated, and others began to get involved in their own way. #DoSomethingForNothing was born—a movement that encourages people to connect their skills and time to those who need them.

In this episode, he speaks to host Nilesha Chauvet about how it all began, his personal transformation, and advice for others who want to give back.
