I have a soft spot for homeless, no matter where they are, what sort of life they live or battles they're fighting, my heart goes out to them. Much love from Wash., DC
Apart from posting comments on you tube do you actually do anything to help them?
Hoho Hoho .. don’t criticise, at least Gyselle says she cares about them, sooooo many people don’t even do that. You don’t know anything about this person, her circumstances etc, so who are you to judge ????
Point here is, do YOU do anything to help the homeless other than criticising this comment ????
@@MarlboroughBlenheim1 i agree. Its easy say these things. On every youtube homeless videos its the same generic sympathy messages. I think all decent humans would feel for any other human in homelessness or addiction but no need for every second comment pleading how sad they are.
Anne K How does saying that someone cares make any difference at all? That’s the question. And don’t turn it round on me. I’m not the one making claims.
@@MarlboroughBlenheim1 actions speak louder than words
Thank you for sharing this one. what a lovely short documentary! Makes your heart go out to both the homeless and the volunteers helping them.
It's very kind of the shopping centre to open it's doors to the homeless at night so they have somewhere safe warm and dry to sleep, the governments need to build more housing, and halfway houses to help people get off their addictions, throughout the world there doesn't seem to be enough support from governments and it seems to be getting worse......
dont know why they cant use the disused tube tunnel stations? but suppose its a health and safety risk but there should be a sign saying sleep at ones own risk and some sort of legislation to account for that
the goverments of the world don't care, they only care about the rich-- need to vote them all out
I know it sounds bad although a warm tube station is like a dream when your homeless
dundee520 : Good thinking BUT what would you REPLACE them with ?
ARGENCHANGO Guapetón .. that’s as maybe but do you actually know the tax system here in the U.K. ??? If your working, an ordinary person working to get by etc you HAVE TO, by law pay, taxes. It’s taken from wages/salary’s before a person gets payed .. there is no cash in hand for work done here any more so employers deduct the tax and give it to the system .... only the rich/uber rich are allowed to tax dodge by the government in power at this time, that is the real crime here.
Need more peeps like this in the ends and we’ll all over the country just goes to show the loving and help that comes from strangers is greater than the government its disgusting how the homeless are treated well done to everyone that does their bit to help the less fortunate
To me it's fine what the big guy is doing for the Brexton,food pantry but to me I don't think that his picture should be on a car and definitely not inside because to me he's making it about himself.
I know, the money spent on the cars getting vinyl could of fed 50 people for atleast a month. I'm assuming this is his main source of income also, So its not even a none profits charity either.
Cool factor pulls in lots of corporate money. Bet you knew that, but let's knock down the black guy.
For every action there is a reaction. How much is it costing for refugees, asylum seekers.When a country is flooded with low skilled immigrants. That will keep wages low and will be less jobs for the people off that country. This will also have a knock on affect for public transportation,hospitals , doctors,schools, house and rent prices. The government are for the rich elite why do you think less council and affordable houses are being built . Why do you think are national Utilities have all been sold of to private corporations. And now we are paying high prices. The rich elite are selling us out for BIG Money 💰. The government say we are over spending we need cut backs but why are their big loopholes for the rich elite with their offshore companies and bank accounts and tax havens. When all the tax money the rich and companies are dodgeing would stop this rapeing of the poor. The rich look after the rich why do you think government have not changed laws to stop the tax dodgers .
steven that's far too easy a blamegame , the reason why we have so many homeless isn't down to immigrants it is down to housing stock being boarded up and left to house only cobwebs , do me a favour look up how many properties are emp[ty in the uk , and cross reference this with how many are homeless , then you will see the real solution to this problem
Good people it's nice to see that there are good people out ther I have massive respect to you all for helping 👊👊
I hope all the homeless people on the streets of London get housed very soon by the very wealthy people of London god bless them all
Very good documentary. Well done on making this & the volunteers who help the homeless & folks in dire financial straits.
The government should reopen all homeless shelters Asap
True !!!!!!!!!!
They were closed?
dirty old town .. ruthless
London looks so dystopian. Of course there are homeless everywhere. Even in the small town I live in.
There are some times over a hundred people sleeping in the Stratford centre from 2100hrs onwards, a fucking disgrace when over the road people live in apartments worth millions.
We're all human...even just saying hello,are you ok..can mean a lot...it's brutal out there..even in the countryside...just show love and help eachother when we can. Peace✌️✌️✌️
Also every country is in the same boat . Its heart breaking
Great video !! I was searching for the sequel but it's not available. It's a very POWERFUL title - "Being Homeless in London". I wish there was a part two for 2018. Anyway, great work !!
Me and my parents were homeless after the mortgage crisis in 2008 put us there, we had 4 days notice to leave our family home of 19 years. The “American style mortgage” courtesy of GE Money left them with the last 9 months to pay all at once due to the crisis. fast forward to 2014... all homeless again, this time for ten days, no possessions left. Very sad, and it gets very hard in that position and tbh my life will never be the same again, i came to a point where I just thought fuck this victim shit, I had reached my limit and I’m still at it!! society can be so cruel when you are in that position. I personally made £22k in five days and then found us a house to rent where we still live. One day , I will buy my parents a home and be able to live my life how it should be. That’s my life’s goal. I pray every day for people living like this. Love you guys. Stay strong , remember who you are and don’t ever forget that YOU are better than these people who walk around day to day without ever knowing how lucky they are. NEVER GIVE UP🤞🏼
I live in Brighton, there have been mini tent cities popping up. More tents ⛺️ just appear on the main city centre streets. It's getting worse. Where it will stop, ...?? How will it get better??
I live in my van for 7 months the hillingdon council only want to push me out of the borrow they don't help
bill that's about as helpful as standing on a drowning person , ie it helps no one and only brings about hate so I hope you wise up and look for solutions and not be so bitter
Somebody has a bed but having sleepless nights
The homeless who take drugs are either trying to escape their reality or free themselves of their existence, the taking of drugs is symptomatic of underlying issues.
Homelessness is social leprosy.
I was 18years on the street and I turned myself around.
I'm glad to hear that. 👍
So I relied on a food bank for a while and spent years in homeless shelters.real lifesavers.then a famous person came along ( doogooder..wants to save the planet..) and wants to correct me. Now I'm in a different country in a house in a field.monitored and told what to do 24/7. I cry all the time but who's gonna believe me or care rite? He bigman and I'm nobody.soz for the vent.cant access anyone to talk to and really homesick..
Those at the bottom end of society need help and there should be joined up thinking by all those in authority to alleviate the situation
the best solution is to pass a law stating no property to remain empty whilst society has a housing crisis , at present wempty properties outnumber homeless by 10 to 1 , its a simple solution and any govt could pass this law , but they don't , and instead the numbers without homes rise
It was sad the guy died living under the m4/A4 motor way bridge in Brentford
Good job
weird question, what is the music you used? im also doing a documentary on homlessness in london

God Bless you for helping the less fortunate. I subed ya.
Thank you!
All the filthy rich should donate money towards more shelters. Alot of women are stuck in abusive relationships and they have no money or nowhere to go. More money needs pumped into drug and alcohol rehabilitation centres. The MPs need to wave their expenses payment and freeze all their payrises and the extra money needs to be ear marked for helping those who need it. I know many are beyond help but alot of homeless are down on their luck be it a relationship break up, a death of a loved one or loss of job. Especially with this pandemic, it will be tenfold the amount of families that will have nothing
I know here in chch some of the homeless chose to be homeless. Sum have flats just around the corner fro where they sit all day. They often pop away after making a quid just to do drugs at there flat. But some a sincerely homeless.
Sad to say we can only help people who want the help........not many people want to help themselves. Instant fix doesn't work. Sobriety is a slow process, but you gotta take the first step.
karry sasfoot and then the second and third step .. on wards an up wards
the local connection rule needs to be abolished as this creates far too many homeless that cannot access help with getting housed , no other social group in the uk is denied access to help just because they have decided to re locate , this is akin to apartheids pass laws and should never have been introduced here
It's like your health u don't think of these probs till thay trouble you.
The homeless are the standard by which the working class consider themselves fortunate.
I think Micha the big black guy running food bank is eating the stock
Good film. I think I will volunteer at a soup kitchen/charity
crikey the last three minutes on the East End is setting back the clock to 19th century attitudes towards survival.the same urchin Dickens street characters. In the 1970s they would have been signing up for evening classes instead.It's been a bull-dozer ever since Thatcher &EU went into busyness.And they create nothing of value either.
michele piteo you saying even the urchins are being turned over dear .. now that is wrong to do
That thumbnail pic of the huts knew instantly were that was when I saw it :( next to. Homebase Hammersmith fly over
I disagree that people ignore them because they don't acknowledge them...in Edinburgh you will be lucky to find a homeless person that is genuinely homeless...the majority are junkies and alchies...we even have a gang of Romanians that I've watched meeting up everymorning to get there shit for sitting at random places along the street....then getting picked up later on that day once all the shoppers had gone like they had just done a day's wage.
My point is that people work hard for their money and struggling themselves so why should they part with money for people that don't need it. Don't get me wrong I've bought loads for homeless but some of them are horrible humans...its easy to pity someone when younsee them at their worst but some of them are proper evil
Homeless people need to stop feeling sorry for themselves; and they need to stop trying to get non homeless people to feel sympathetic towards them; and look for full, or part time employment through the employment agencies then save up as much money as they can; and look for roommate(s) to share the cost of renting.
One day they will rise up.
most homelessness is through choice, there's plenty of support out there to at least get someone in to a shared house etc a lot of homeless are remaining on the street in order to get social housing rather than private renting, others have drug / alcohol dependency and would rather spend their money on their vices instead of sorting their housing needs out. christ, leave London and go up north and you can literally be in a social rented place within a week.
the long term homeless are the worst, because they have chucked all the support out there away and more than likely screwed over everyone that had tried to help them, be that friends / family / strangers or charities / services
as for soup kitchens, all they are doing is enabling the worst of the worst to continue down the path they are, a massive proportion of people that use food banks and soup kitchens aren't even destitute, they just squander their money elsewhere, all you see is a bunch of junkies and alcoholics at them getting free food so they can spend their money on another fix / drink
i've worked with the homeless for the past decade and it's the same story of woe from all of them, yet in the main they are responsible for the positions they are in and remaining in, yes there are some genuine people out there, but they don't remain homeless for long, because they take up the offers of help and support, the long term homeless would rather play the victim.
Well said.
U r completely right. At the food bank where I live, it’s always full of junkies. And they probably spend more money on drugs a week than I earn in a month. So why r they then entitled to free food?? They chose drugs over food! Really Winds me up.
Oso Bitchy .. Oso Bitchy is certainly oh so the right profile name for you 😖 .... circumstances is a lot of the cases of homelessness, not alcohol or drugs, have you bothered to even talk to the homeless you serve ?? doesn’t sound like you have at all ...
Yea pretty much bang on.
What is wrong with us that we could care so little about 'someone' sitting in a garbage bag? Thankyou person at 1:17.
She gave every reason and course why there’s a massive rise in homelessness and never mentioned the obvious which is the millions of economic migrants that have invaded and colonised the country getting indulged by successive governments
❤❤
Big trucks = lil nuts
Ha ha ha.. for spreading about homeless in London its ok bro... I love so much when I was watching this Video...So not only in my country lot of the homeless.. So we can change homeless ...
I think this is a nicelt made film however it does not objectively look at the situation. the reality is most homeless people are drug users
I'd take drugs if a homeless too least they get some sleep you are such an ignorant prick not all homeless do drink or drugs actually wgmhen u lay your head down tonight be grateful you have a home because you are one paycheck away from it
