Gugs Mhlungu speaks with Mike Abel, founder of the Street Store, a rent-free pop-up clothing initiative for homeless people that allows them to choose items they like and try them on in a dignified “shopping” experience.

They discuss the impact of the initiative over the past four years, as well as a clothing drive taking place on 23 May, encouraging donations of clothes, blankets for winter, and shoes.

Gugs Mhlungu is your weekend companion for thoughtful conversations on lifestyle, health, culture, books, food, and everything happening around 702Land.
