Step forward to give help to homeless
The eight-mile walk on Friday June 24 is planned to take two or three hours at a "leisurely pace".
Fresh Start was set up by churches in Edinburgh in 1999 and helps people make the transition from homelessness to a tenancy. It provides "starter packs" of essential equipment for a new home, ranging from cutlery to bedding, helps with decorating, runs a befriending service and offers training and employment opportunities.
