🎖️ An MBE for Lou Macari! The embargo is lifted - “for services to football and to homeless people in Stoke-on-Trent”. A privilege to have filmed with him on a number of occasions for BBC Breakfast. And the manager of my favourite Stoke City team in the 90s

Thank you so much to the Scottish Football Supporters Association after they voted me their Hero of the Year for our work at the Macari Centre. An honour for me to receive this from the fans of a game that gave me so much and a pleasure to meet Paul Goodwin, founder of the SFSA

Just seen Sticks & Shelter the new feature documentary from Academy® Award winners @overton54 & @RachelShenton.
It's about @LouMacari10 helping a resident at @MacariFDN in his fight for sobriety. A compelling watch.

This is Micky Donovan who played drums in a band before losing his way in life and ending up in the Macari Centre. I visited him in hospital on Thursday and was planning to go back that night when they rang me. Another gone before his time, that is homelessness for you. RIP Micky
