Buckle International – Using Business to Stand Against Homelessness
Homelessness is often seen in passing on city streets, but for those living it, there is no passing moment. It is constant. A search for safety, warmth, and somewhere to rest without fear.
Buckle International, a luxury chauffeur service, is supporting CEO Sleepout London to help shine a light on that reality.
The company’s founding director, Matthew Luckhurst, speaks from years of working in London. Over that time, he has met many people experiencing homelessness, each with their own story. Small acts of kindness, like offering food or a drink, offered brief support, but also highlighted how far-reaching the need really is.
A personal moment with his young son added another layer of understanding. Seeing his child’s curiosity and compassion towards someone sleeping rough brought home the human side of homelessness in a way that was hard to ignore.
That experience helped shape his decision to get involved with CEO Sleepout. For Buckle International, the event is seen as a practical way for businesses and individuals to come together and contribute to tackling homelessness in a meaningful way.
The belief behind their support is simple. No one should have to sleep on the streets, and businesses can play a part in addressing that reality through action, not just awareness.
