JoJo Oldham’s “Spaces of Homelessness” project will shine a light on the lives of homeless people in the city.
You might remember seeing the former Innocent Drinks creative JoJo Oldham's meticulous hand-drawn maps of London here.

Well, now she's been asked to take part in a project called "Spaces of homelessness" by Adele Irving and Oliver Ross from Northumbria University.

She tells BuzzFeed News: "Adele and Oliver ran workshops at the various care centres around the city and asked participants to annotate photocopied maps, marking out the places that are of personal significance to them."
According to the project's website: "The aims of the exhibition are two-fold: to shine further light on routes into homelessness, the spaces and places of homelessness and the experiences of the homeless people therein; and to give a greater voice to a homeless population still largely marginalised from mainstream decision-making processes".

She describes it as a "fascinating, intimate project".
