Sleeping Coats for the Homeless | Edinburgh News
Description
A Scottish startup called The Ootsider is turning heads with all-weather coats that transform into sleeping bags—already donating over 400 to the homeless across the UK. Designed for extreme weather and inclusive of wheelchair users and those with Parkinson’s, their mission is rooted in compassion. Founder John Keogh shares how vital their work is amid Glasgow’s shelter crisis, and they’ve just received a surprise £4,000 donation to make 25 more coats for rough sleepers—proof that innovation paired with heart can change lives.
