Conversations with Kevin

A haircut can change the way someone feels about themselves but what happens when that haircut becomes the starting point for something much bigger?
Host Nathan Gorman is joined by Craig Hollywood, founder of Short Back and Sidewalks, an organisation that provides free haircuts to people experiencing hardship, domestic violence, poverty and homelessness.
Craig shares the story of how an idea born from empathy became a growing organisation, the powerful moments he has witnessed through the work, and why connection, dignity and simply being listened to can have such an impact.
The conversation also explores the partnership between Short Back and Sidewalks with KEVIN.MURPHY, and the role the hair industry can play in creating meaningful change.
