The solution is simple but not easy. Street access to real time face to face support, in a place that supports rather than judges; that provides a shoulder; a helping hand and that understands the needs of each individual. Respect, compassion, integrity and commitment delivered in spades. And in case you are wondering, homelessness can happen to anyone at any time......
Sofa surfing, staying with family, staying with friends, the park bench that suffices in the summer or the car in winter; sleeping in a corner at work; finding ways to have a shower, a bite to eat, trying to hold it together so that you can keep working, can keep on seeing your kids.
Your donations help us prevent homelessness; help us pull lives back together, and help us create communities for those who feel rejected and less than they are.
As you can appreciate from this case, the reasons around potential homelessness are often complex, and whilst it might seem on the surface that George was okay, he absolutely was not.
So once again, a huge thank you for your donations that are making a difference to so many lives.
