Ep 64. “Start with a cuppa…”: Project Compass with Becky and CJ

Caty sits down with Becky Frost, Project Manager, and CJ Jago, Deputy Project Manager, from Project Compass in Lincoln to talk about their inspiring, person-first approach to supporting people who are sleeping rough.

For Becky, CJ, and the Project Compass team, it all begins with something simple but essential: creating a space where people feel safe, welcome, and never judged. Somewhere you can come in, sit down, have a cuppa, and get support with basic needs.

This “open door” approach doesn’t just change lives at Project Compass - it’s also influencing other services. Because when you meet people where they are, at the moment that feels right for them, that’s when real change starts to happen.
