Big Ambition to End Homelessness 12:00-12:45 Event Time Saturday 27th July Photography and art exhibition All day The Bevan Tent will turn gallery on opening day with emotive photography and art representing people experiencing homelessness. See the photography of Paul John Roberts, whose lens has captured the highs and lows of Street Football Wales players in the run-up to the tournament, and the art of the Share A Life project, powerful portraits which aim to break down barriers around perceptions of homelessness. Sunday 28th July Small nation: Big ambition to end homelessness 12:00-12:45 Host: Michael Sheen Speakers: - Jon Sparkes (CEO Crisis UK and Chair of the Welsh Government’s new Homelessness Action Group) - Katie Dalton (Director, Cymorth Cymru) Wales may be relatively small in size, but this should enable us to focus our efforts, develop the right relationships and co- ordinate our actions. With homelessness at its worst for decades, can we use our size to our advantage and come up with a plan to end homelessness? Jon Sparkes, Chief Executive of Crisis and Chair of the new Welsh Government Homelessness Action Group, will share his views on how this could be achieved. He will be joined by Katie Dalton, who will outline Cymorth Cymru’s Homeless World Cup campaign which calls on everyone to play their part in ending homelessness in Wales. From Love to Hostility: Drawbridge Britain 13:00-13:45 Host: Dr Kerry Moore Speaker: Russell Hargrave Join writer and reporter Russell Hargrave and Cardiff University’s Dr Kerry Moore for a conversation on the politics of media and migration. Russell’s book is Drawbridge Britain: love and hostility in immigration policy from Windrush to the present. It tells the story of the British obsession with migration, from panic in Whitehall to Thatcher's promises to a Brexit vote driven by fear and mistrust of newcomers. Dr Kerry Moore’s is an expert on media coverage of migration, racism and social justice. Her work includes European press coverage of the migration crisis in the Mediterranean; populism and Brexit, human rights in refugee news and constructions of racism in UK crime news. More Than A Game: The story of how the Homeless World Cup has helped a million people worldwide 14:00-14:45 Host: Jason Mohammad Speakers: • Mel Young - Co-founder, Homeless World Cup Foundation • Homkant Surandase - Coach and Former Player, Team India (Slum Soccer) • Lisa Wrightsman - Manager and Former Player, Team USA (Street Soccer USA) • Natalie Handley - International Referee and Former Player, Team Wales (Street Football Wales) The Homeless World Cup journey takes us around the world and tells many stories on its way. Hear about the story and impact of the Homeless World Cup so far from Co-Founder Mel Young. Former Homeless World Cup players from Team Wales, India and USA will join us to share their perspectives and experiences on how football can change lives. Homelessness and the city 15.00 - 15.45 Host: Katie Dalton Speakers: - Dr Robin James Smith (Cardiff University) - Richard Edwards (Chief Executive, Huggard) Like many cities across the UK, Cardiff has seen an increase in rough sleeping, with outreach services working throughout the day and night to support people off the streets and into housing. Cardiff University’s Dr Robin James Smith will be sharing his research and views on the relationship between urban spaces, people’s experiences of street homelessness and the provision of outreach services. He will be joined by Richard Edwards, Chief Executive of the Huggard Centre, who will share his view from the coalface, supporting people in Cardiff through the provision of advocacy, health services, emergency shelter, temporary accommodation and supported housing. Tackling Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking 16.00 – 16.45 Host: Bernie Bowen-Thomson, Chief Executive, Safer Wales Speakers: - Pete Kernoghan, Development Director for No More Traffik - Jasmin Ahmed, Regional Human Trafficking MARAC Coordinator, BAWSO Victims of modern slavery and trafficking are all too often hidden in plain sight. Modest estimates suggest that in the UK there are around 13,000 victims. The figure is likely to be much higher. Victims are some of the most vulnerable people in our communities, forced into labour, servitude and sexual abuse and deliberately targeted because of their vulnerability. While awareness is growing and reporting has increased, there is more to do and a role for each and every person to help wage war on modern slavery, from reporting concerns to making positive purchases. Join Pete Kernoghan of Northern Ireland’s No More Traffik and Jasmin Ahmed, Regional Human Trafficking MARAC Coordinator from BAWSO (Black Association of Women Step Out) for a discussion on their work and the prospects for bringing slavery and human trafficking to an end. The discussion will be hosted by Bernie Bowen-Thomson; Chief Executive of Safer Wales. Stand up to homelessness with Sara Pascoe 17.30 – 18.15 Sara Pascoe is a highly acclaimed comedian, writer and actor and we're thrilled she's performing a stand-up set at the Homeless World Cup. Her extensive TV credits include the BBC solo stand-up special LadsLadsLads; BBC2's Frankie Boyle's New World Order, on which she is a weekly guest contributor; and Comedians Giving Lectures on Dave, which she hosts. She wrote and performed the BBC Radio 4 series Modern Monkey and the BBC2 short Sara Pascoe vs Monogamy, which was inspired by her first book Animal. Tuesday 30th July Kindness Matters 17.00-17.45 Host: Victoria Winckler (Bevan Foundation) - Douglas White (Carnegie UK) - Revd Aled Edwards - Charlotte Waite (Kindness Matters Cardiff) Can small acts of kindness change lives? Is altruism now a rare commodity? What sorts of kindness make a difference to someone living on the streets? Join activist, writer and Cytûn Chief Executive Reverend Aled Edwards, Carnegie UK Trust’s Douglas White and Kindness Matters Cardiff’s Charlotte Waite to explore the practice and meaning of kindness, ways to encourage it and how it can shape the world around us for the better. Shreds: The story of the Cardiff Five 18:00-18:45 Host: Michael Sheen Speakers: - Ceri Jackson (BBC Wales) - John Actie - Tony Paris - Kervin Julien (campaigner and homeless charity) Valentine’s Day 1988: 20-year-old Lynette White is brutally murdered in a flat in Cardiff’s docklands. A man is seen crouched in the doorway of the murder scene. He is crying; his hands covered in blood. Fifty detectives hunt the ‘distinctive white man’ whose likeness is flashed across newspapers and TV. Why 10 months later were five black men rounded up and charged? What unfolded over the next 30 years is a take so scandalous you'd be forgiven for thinking it was a work of fiction. What is the true cost of the notorious ‘Cardiff Five’ miscarriage of justice? On individuals, society and the street? Thursday 1st August Cai’s Story – First Screening 15.00 – 15.45 This event is the very first screening of Cai’s Story, a short film designed to raise awareness of the very real threat of homelessness in many LGBTQ+ young people’s lives. Cai’s story, which is based on the experiences of real young people, shines a light on why LGBTQ+ young people are 4 times more likely to experience homelessness than their non-LGBTQ+ peers. The film’s director, Tudur Owen, will introduce the film, and the audience will hear from a young person who has experienced some of the issues captured in Cai’s Story, themselves, plus an update from End Youth Homelessness Cymru on the findings of a forthcoming report into LGBTQ+ youth homelessness. The Guilty Feminist 17:30 – 18:45 Deborah Frances-White This event is a live recording, so all guests must be in their seats by 5.15pm and remain there until 6.45pm. Seats are limited and on a first come first served basis. Thanks!
