Ricky Hatton Expand Ricky ‘Hitman’ Hatton, Mancunian legend and two time World Champion Heavyweight Boxing champion, wanted to do something for the homeless he saw in Manchester city centre. When he accompanied Evander Holyfield on a visit to our drop in in 2014, he met our friends, who touched his heart. Since then Ricky has raised our profile, fundraised for us as well as donating what looks like most of Asda’s stock when he delivers practical items to the drop in centre.
Jazmine Franks Expand Jazmine started to volunteer when she was best known as Esther Bloom on Hollyoaks. She is also developing a power lifting career, so we don’t know how she managed to fit in being in the drop in centre too! Jazmine has a real heart for our friends and has raised our profile and jumped out of a plane to raise funds for us! She has now started to work for Barnabus as a Session Leader at our drop in centre and has been bringing her energy and warm heart to Barnabus every day.
