sleepbus | The Pink Bus Project

With the dramatic increase of women (and their children) ending up on the streets due to domestic violence, financial strife, family breakdown and other factors, sleepbus will launch a “Pink“ sleepbus. This will be a service specifically for women (and their children).

Although our traditional service can cater for both male and female guests of all ages, there is a need for women, particularly from domestic violence situations to be in a female only environment for their own peace of mind and mental health. sleepbus recognises this and because our model can adapt quickly to meet the needs of people forced onto the streets, a pink sleepbus was a no brainer.

The service remains the same in every other detail to our traditional service, just for women only. We hope this will make our female guests even more comfortable while they work out their next steps.

sleepbus offers a safe place to sleep while transitioning into long term accommodation, as well as links to local support services providing assistance with finances, employment, education, health care and legal advice.
