Sleep plays a vital role in good health and wellbeing; and getting enough quality sleep can help protect a person’s mental health, physical health, and safety. For those sleeping rough, getting a good nights sleep is near impossible and can contribute to long-term homelessness and more.
sleepbus® has a simple focus; to provide safe, temporary overnight accommodation to those sleeping rough in Australia. Their aim is to get people off the street and keep them safe and healthy until they can get back on their feet.
Their accommodation is not a long term solution, but what they do provide is a safe , temporary and comfortable place to sleep for the night. sleepbus believes that sleep changes everything, with a good nights sleep, the pathway out of homelessness will be a little easier to find.
