Virtual Addresses With Lockers And A Service To Get Your ID And A Bank Account

.

The Problem

There is a catch-22 situation where homeless people need an address to get ID and a bank account, and need a bank account to pay for the ID.

.

The Solution

Install lockers in local council and housing association offices that rough sleepers can use as an official address. Combine this with a service that makes it very easy to request any missing ID documents (Birth certificate, NI No, Passport), scan them into a virtual locker (and put them in the physical one) and then use these ID documents to open a bank account.
