Our Team

Co-Founders

Gary Dunstan

Contact Gary

Gary leads on connecting and supporting partnerships in our locations, with a focus on new cities and regions, and around engaging businesses.

Gary has spent many years helping individuals and businesses with their ideas. Viv and Gary met at a social enterpreneurs event, and soon realised they shared the same core values, and had complimentary skills. The rest is history.

Viv Slack

Contact Viv

Viv leads on understanding the changing situation in GM and beyond, functional aspects of the website, strategic direction of the organisation, & supporting the team.

Viv worked in web development for many years with major brands and charities, including Oxfam and Amnesty International. Since 2015 she has supported local social enterprises to use technology to make a difference. Street Support Network emerged from conversations with local people facing homelessness and frontline organisations about where they needed help.

James Cross - Organisations Support

Contact James

James provides support to organisations across the UK that have issues with how their data is presented on the Street Support website.

James came to us in summer 2018, he started helping out by creating organisation entries for Greater Manchester and his main concern now is to ensure information is accurate and correct. James also looks after a lot of internal support. A developer in the making, James works on smaller elements of the site. But if things get a bit scary he calls Vince.


We also have help from some amazing digital experts as needed. Here are a few of the people that have helped us along the way…

Vince Lee - Lead Developer

Vince is an experienced full stack developer who has led the development of Street Support Network from the start. He is a safe pair of hands, always reliable and dedicated to social change.

Alex Atkinson - Designer

Alex is an experienced designer, generously giving his time for free to Street Support Network - we couldn't have done this without him!
