Homeless man is earning some dough

Reporter Community News

Brian “Sooty” Wallace has a lot to thank Rishi Sharma for.
Domino’s franchisee Sharma was headed to work when he spotted a man using a discarded pizza box to ask for spare change.
Wallace caught his eye as he was using the back of a discarded Domino’s pizza box to ask passers-by on Kings Crescent if they had any spare change.
Stopping to offer Wallace a coffee and a hot meal, Sharma learned he had lost his job due to Covid-19 and was homeless.
Now they work together after Sharma offered him a job.
