Millennium Dome to host homeless workshops
The Millennium Dome in London is to be used as one of six venues for this year’s Open Christmas campaign by homelessness charity Crisis.

Alongside providing food and basic medical care, the charity will be offering a training fair. Some 800 homeless people in London are expected to take part in a wide range of workshops from plumbing and IT to activities like yoga and circus skills. The initiative, dubbed “Be inspired”, will take place from 23 to 30 December.

A spokeswoman for Crisis said, “We have over 3,000 volunteers, but this year we may need more. If anyone wants to volunteer, we particularly need volunteers from 31 December until midday on 3 January to help us clear up.”
