it eats but now i'm facing christmas and live out on the streets. to come to this. but it is just so awful i wasn't you know disappointed in the food still give out food for the most of. her life. because you don't really feel like a human being you know. and then. the guy this came over smithsonian gave me this book of.

christmas is about whoops love and family but there are so many people in the u.k. that have none of these things i want to see what it was like to be almost on the signs to go through christmas as a homeless person. only subject. yes but i have said. well i know it's on your list. anything but a lump of coal although i don't know. since two thousand and ten the number of rough sleepers in the u.k. has increased plans. fifty percent that means literally thousands are us on the

street every night. i wasn't going to have enough time to really understand homelessness but everyone has to face the fear that first night house i changed some types of clothes and packed a plastic back. i have no idea where i'm going to spend christmas or even where i'm going to sleep. in the. groups a few things but not too much with. blankets which is going to be void of course let's run. just a bowl of water. something that's. hopefully put people in a good mood. around itself. and clean myself a bit less and also more. troops brush.

that a bit see if they sed. but i have no money. and i haven't eaten anything and the only way i'm going to get to eat something is on the boat finding it's all. begging for enough money to get me some sweet. yeah. that's the first. time this regularly fed by the looks of charities but i have no idea when. i need some advice from someone of. me but is there any way around it is communal food today you know. new places with money going to get some in three days time now also it's on. and on the ground yet enough enough to.

okey dokey. that was what i was hoping to. great news honey i'm too late then to give out food around here first thing in the morning so i'll miss what chaunce. there was nothing else for it if i was going to eat i was going to have to make. myself a small son. it's a humorous five minutes bring myself to what's mr chase. but. really just says he believes in him oh yeah. ok. she says christ just absolutely if. people buy in the believe.

and this one kind guy just a movement gave people to quit. i didn't expect that or do. you feel so ashamed to ask people. to feel about you have to do that to get to vote to get a boy. to do it to. them by some which. just so feel better with a. like slush fund. for just. being told what it was things are just too. thing that makes me

feel worse was. to understand some people to see how they were feeling the tone. that this is the anything actually the case and have been in a as each time a territory i'd stay even though nothing in i had nothing else in life. lisa has been homeless for two years now she's battled alcoholism drug addiction and a little girl now this with the older sister. in a she asks me nearly every day and some i say yeah. yeah when i'm in the back on the end she's starting to stop asking now has been said no i didn't. qualify for a lot of the hospitals because i wasn't mentally ill enough i didn't score enough

points to not play. in order to get social housing for most persons meets a number of different criteria since lisa doesn't tick the right books since she faces an uncertain future. yeah yeah i have it's own time now i just a lucky break wolf i can't get past because i can't let my thoughts down consistent to face like six feet at least if i was to stop that and. yet. these discussions reminded me just one place we moved to christmas. it was celebrations going on all around me but they don't mean much if you've got nothing to spend.

but there are all good people if you give up the money and time to spread a little festive cheer. it's just going to all fall sick so on heading down towards cherry hill synastry see a fourth and final is going to spurs just enough smoke free food it. looks a christian church situps tables queries until see how it's. on most. of us would be lovely. soup loves soup thank you very much think you. make it on it's perfect.

i've been on my feet for. iced tricep and dying else. but i think it's my joe day in hell they are going to treat every scene did you know family or. staying on time because my dogs soil american oil. they just they want to stink on top of me kids yeah i will free. up if you want to start to like him he's. been hard you. understand no one sponsoring my daughter. saw an eight year old boy sixteen year old who are. fighting five year old boy.

ok i'm sorry non-pros i asked for a sign. them into the night last night i just i just typed in my state source took it. away and your response right write. stories like monks read to come in the first circle of drink and drugs which leads to using everything. just right here in the home to become the richest parts of the u.k. is filled with people from legal conscious every night some miles distant meticulously . and maybe. when you're close because you run out of the no. one bucket or. trace that i create a danger a way. as unpleasant because. on issues. like this as

a major. part of the obama. wife who is to. have a fight yeah sure but smart if you controlling people and i know i know i know us or any of this is very much easier said than done as you go i mean we. still are so used to store in the meantime. i love. it lori like you only. really took in these movies the religious. look of the mummy was good at least of which were killed i could probably release somebody loses my way of life possible lol. any sympathy for critiques critique of critics it some people don't deserve it. or just. scuse me goes you know the. are those tickets going to show say.

your opposition thank you very much that's why you want to was funded very much serious. mostly about the travel because it gets me on the ground gets me a bit warm up so so take me up soon sufis bush. so this is a place i found. great commission ministry. just down here i don't know where they are making their odd choice if it looks quiet.

as if i didn't realize already this is the spray of horrible. two mice one of most i think that they were must have of course already run over my feet so. there's no glamour in the slush. fund and even on the streets one day it is been cold humiliating and frightening to some of the family in that stairwell because of tech may have any time. i could easily see what drugs or alcohol would act as a way to block out which reality. you need help to consent to have someone catch me from.

same wrong one old rule just told. me you get to shape out this day and become educated and engagement equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart. just to look for common ground. the greek riots occupy wall street arab spring these are the beginnings. of the protest across europe today it was all connected it's all based on the exact same concept of bankers printing too much money creating this wealth and income gap and it's a delayed or deferred riot you know it's true that the violence was baked into the cake and now leaders like that are getting their just desserts.

my son is doing drugs my nephew was still in drugs my sister spent doing drugs it was like an epidemic of drug abuse america's public enemy number one in the united states is drug abuse we started going after the users in the prison population. we started treating sick people people who are addicted to these drugs like criminals while i was on the hill. the war on drugs. there are numbers of people who are in prison for. sins for owner minor offenders in the drug trade it's a lot watching your children grow up and miss you in waves and say by daddy as you're walking out of the business it's just it doesn't get easier.

maybe. these. on the streets was more than enough for me. enough but the humiliation was worse. it was soul destroying. many to find a way. i wanted to spend christmas eve with some people who got their lives back on track. very good. things went very well thank you very much

could. have seen the. property loss. from the aussies projects they were an intervention same. people who talk addictions. the differences might have massive absolutely massive. this enabled me. to get my life back on track he when you leave stray homeless you don't realize just what an impact that has on someone's life it's easy you know you have to get used to sharon again you have to get used to cooking or i muse again when you came in i guess you didn't know things now i had. the clothes on the back when i when i came here i had a pair of jeans. pair of trainers with holes in that was it that i can hit with without

the opportunity if these guys given that to me are you know where i'd be. going weeks. this is a very. simple. thank . you system of the doing script we. he was on the streets new prisons from the age of eighty. eight to show me some of his old haunts. a little of the. home of the. past. i don't know.

yet he says he sees this is the school yeah welcome to the school this is here to see where i still reside so. as you can say you know there's makeshifts just be careful where you check guys. yeah yeah definitely want. you know where you're more welcome so if you wish. you know there's a makeshift beds you can see people's bedrooms this is people's belongings these people with the stuff in the code in here he says oh people's belongings you can say there's actually. a proper bed down there you know i may love my new stove very phonecall killed. while. i'm now on the understanding that there's about

four of us now on the understanding this for four of them now. odious lot was a little opened up yes all good old swear words board saw a few much you know what i'm gone that was open spice so they're used to refer you know i used to get. big sophistical where we had all pits positions the snow would actually come up so when i was. right in front of my eyes like he and i lose his addiction was at its strongest here he was suffering from chronic psychosis. these moxy are i would actually pick yeah. squeeze the skin thinking that there was stuff colin and then they for my skin and if i couldn't get it out like that i'll get a knife and all cuts myself if'n yeah and then get the knife and start taking it so hard to get these bits out mahseer nothing near the hotel is well over my chest

same same thing just the written self shreds of oil down my legs just rip myself to shreds make. you know one point i thought i was saying this but my face was one big scab. yeah it was just a just a cult that just tear myself to shreds all will die. eventually louis was picked up by an outreach team and goes into temporary accommodation he's now trying to give back by working with an organization which deals with the homeless the local authorities council willing to help. but he's refused his mr you so sure he went into withdrawal right in front of my eyes.

you can be a long and painful journey away from homelessness and addiction and lunchtime moment twin brothers kevin and brian toohey they're experienced as six junkies and they lived rough and closed havoc on the streets of south of the turn of the century and the. babies moving slowly. don't stick. in. ideal. so i mean that's just the beginning for you to get to just really dug up a little bit today these people here do nothing still you think you think yeah yeah yeah i will sue so change the bench is missing it is for both. my feeling that the ten should be always f. ing up those patients.

really dangerous and yet i can always population. consisting of a long violent crime moved in people out of here over. pagans yet when i'm out of it people quite a bit are almost always kind of a printing press and i was one frame along here we feel. over those then you know three o'clock in the morning. kind of in the news in droves never going to know how i was caught and i am. being run so i can sell the money had been stolen and i was left of it what would you stick with it just because of the drugs that you state here is money. you can handle off when we got you know west and no one there to. leicester square piccadilly circus yeah it was right with tourists and they're just

waiting to get rid of all these easy bodies is fifteen years ago to prove this was a serious the problem is now just in the set up position addiction recovery consultant seeing. the small tragedy it's making to this month around our son kevin tries a way through right similar price that we have over those. less than really. sixty though i know for a. why i was so i don't feel. myself a dog i've written called who won over coverage i know i can so fit on a bench and recovery from a veteran of the passive horse you know hopeless i think he'd be proud or it'd be. best off the bottle it seems just finding the will to carry him the next day we drive down to kevin's home by the seaside sleeping. during a bunch of money because finally christmas day. that's it makes me

crazy or stuff and i tell people if you're the star of that you're the star of the of the kitchen has made all this stuff we have to see we have to have you already do we go to movies you do t.v. you look at you you look great. but. i was willing to go. how many meals have you done we chatted about sixty five today yes yes it would be bigots i guess. we might have thought it was disbelief because it's rod it was just because you know frank. yeah yeah. yeah yeah yeah i was like. christmas is a family holiday but for many years the twins of celebrate stick with those he's

got nowhere else to go instead he's no different. to the key rule trimmings for everything. that. i run my obit on with me oh my dear girl i did. it's. yeah you're going to lose it a little bit. but missed out on christmas with my family but there was real christmas spirit in that school as much as i hated being out on the streets i love being impulsive. they might just be a few days in a miserable year but it's clear the whole day still gives people hope. to open a college been given by. a few words that reminds me just lucky i really am.
