You Must Stay At Home is a creative piece of writing written in response to interviews with members of the homeless population local to Wellingborough in 2020. It was created in response to the fact that many rough sleepers had been supported to find housing due to the Covid-19 pandemic. For the first time, it was possible to know where they were and how to contact them. As such, we saw an opportunity to work with them in telling their own stories.
