Gerard McKenzie-Govan, 41, is offering the sleeping pods to anyone in Scotland without a roof over their head.

A Scots shop owner has been handing out free 'sleeping pods' for homeless people in a bid to save lives this winter.

Speaking to the Daily Record, Gerard said: "We have already given out a few of the sleeping pods since we started stocking them last week. The Blankfaces is the UK's first fashion brand aimed at ending homelessness. The store sells merchandise designed by someone who is homelessness or has experienced homelessness. The designer then gets a percentage of each product sold.

Margaret volunteered in Africa before Gerard was born but she then settled in Ayrshire and started up her own homeless hostel. Gerard's Glasgow shop opened in 2020 and this year, after launching a pop-up store in Manchester, he is proud to be able to support more people than ever before.
