Sheffield drug and alcohol charity glam up to spread the message
Going glam to highlight at-risk groups across the world were staff and volunteers at drug and alcohol-free project Emmaus Sheffield.
The organisation provides a home, support and work for formerly homeless people in the city and when its supporters heard that parent organisation Emmaus International had launched the Frock Up campaign they delved into their secondhand superstore selection of pre-loved fashion to come up with some eye-catching outfits.
A spokesman said: “One of the most important parts of the Emmaus ethos is solidarity. Getting everybody to dress up was a perfect way to remind everybody of the Emmaus message.”
