When a young girls feels safer sleeping in a grave yard than the streets, can say society has failed

Hearing Suzie talking about sleeping in a bed again, and how nice it was to have pillows after such a long time was a real wake up call to me about how much stuff I take for granted.

my daughter met this girl a few yrs a go now and she said she was lovely to chat with , so sad she passed away

Even if you're homeless, you can still throw your shit away in a trash can instead of leaving it on the sidewalk!

The girl with red hair. Her story broke my heart ♥

This girl made a passing remark at the start of this video that spoke volumes for the reason many homeless people stay on the streets, she said she would find it very lonely being in a flat without having people all around on the streets.

I've been homeless, but I was the hidden homeless unlike these people, I didn't look it as I was so ashamed to be homeless I kept invisible,and i was not hanging about on streets , when I went to the council many times for help they never believed I was homeless, and never helped me. so many homeless dont get help because they dont fit in with these people in this documentary.

One of the saddest things is seeing homeless people turned away from shelters because they have a dog. Near where I love we use to walk past a man with a dog sleeping rough in an underpass in Dundee where he did the decent thing by refusing to abandon his dog - even though society had abandoned the dogs owner. A entitlement on those who operate homeless shelters in Dundee and those who fund shelters who have zero grip on reality

That scares me been homeless. Lose in my home having no where to live is a extreme bad dream to me!. I have no kids but I have a lovely lad nice family etc. I am so grateful for what I have got.

Being a taxi driver I lately picked up a salvation army worker who said most of their centres are mostly empty because homeless have to abide by rules ie no drugs or drink etc and believe me I know what it's like homeless myself for quite awhile over winter time thought I was going to die but attitude on some of them is unreal

Someone’s daughter on the street at the age of 21. Very sad very sad 😞

People don’t realise these girls need more then a room . There should be assisted living for these girls . They need someone there to fully support them for there mental health as well as there drug addiction . They need long term assisted live so there’s always someone until they are strong enough with life . A room and medication just isn’t enough

There’s got to be something wrong when you say you’d rather be in prison

my heart goes out to you guys I hope your life picks up and gets better for you guys

That’s horrible I can’t imagine one night on the street 😱😱😱😱

Only in England would they say " wipe your bits down there "-- very cute and funny!!!

This thing about "Tanya has a flat, but thinks it is not safe, so sleeps on the streets....." they should follow up on what she means by that, because it makes it look like she might be one of the professional beggars out there, saving, or burning up money on something, and hanging out on streets to get money from people who need it more like - or instance - a person with no flat.

It's so hard to be in a hostel with strange men. You get put in hostels with men who threaten to sexually assault you.. Wish where were ones for just women. I pray for these women.

It’s so hard to watch. My heart is breaking for them. The poor girl with the red hair being soaking wet.

Rest in Peace, Paige ❤

Stay off the drugs kids or you'll end up like this

I can't believe young women are sleeping on the streets in Brighton. What kind of country thinks this is okay?

Miss you so much Paige I think about you all the time! Love you rip babe ❤

I hate hearing pregnant people say “half of everything goes to the baby. Half my food, half my meds, blah blah” that’s not true. That’s what caused pregnant women to become so over weight while pregnant or to have such over weight babies. That’s the wrong mentality. And she is so easy going about the fact her baby is going into care and the fact that the baby is going to be going through withdrawals. It’s very sad. But that’s mental health issues for you.

Pisses me of ... Why does the UK government keep sending millions of £.s to other country's for people who need food n shelter what about our own for god's sake god bless the homeless . Bob UK 🇬🇧

If I were homeless, I would make my way to Dover , get a ruck sack and puffer jacket , get tanning lotion, throw any ID away , then start walking along the M2 towards london Get picked up by police , wont speak English , then I will get a nice hotel room and food and a bit of spending money , at least I would be warm and dry

there go any one of us but for the grace of god.I wish them all some good luck in their lifes.Its so sad

I know a young women who is homeless, she has been offered help numerous times, housed about 3 or 4 times, but always ends up back on the street.

I really feel for those homeless people at the end of the day they are human beings with feelings ,we thank the lord that’s not us in that predicament ,as we don’t no what is around the corner ,so I never judge

I feel so bad i know what its like being on the streets as i was homeless at the age of 16 till i was 18

Oh my God, Its horrible , How a mother can stay like this. God bless you all.

This video brings memories of a Tracy Chapman song : "People say it doesn't exist Cause no one would like to admit That there is a city underground Where people live everyday Off the waste and decay Off the discards of their fellow man" ❤ to you all, fellow.

rest in peace Paige, you were truly a beautiful human :(

She’s such a sweet young woman and deserves so much better in her life

This is heart breaking

At the end of the day, they are human beings. And they have been tossed aside and discarded - like the mentally and physically sick, the unemployed and the low-waged - by the Tories who look down their noses at those they deem NOT FIT TO LIVE!

its so sad for ALL those people now in november 2023 it must be hell to live on the streets anywhere in the UK GOD BLESS help them all who dont have a home to go back to !

This is heartbreaking. Makes me sad that the UK still has so many homeless. Drug addiction is a scary demon and we can not judge those thar have taken or addicted. We don't know their reasons. Drugs is one of the hardest addictions to fight.

whys she getting pregnant when she's homeless, sort your own life out before bringing another one into the world

This is heartbreaking 💔 It could happen to anyone 😔

I need an update video about these ladies

If 1 in 8 are Women then 7 in 8 are Men. OBJECTIVE non Sexist reporting doesn’t make a biased statement about only ONE Gender. If you are implying that many men are womenHATERS who either attack & rape at women or who sympathise with men who attack & rape at women- then you need to objectively state this in your report, not just write a sexist based statement about 1 in 8 being women while failing to state that the majority are Men.

in the winter or bad weather use a tarp over ur tent that turns any cheap tent into a water proof tent 4.57 time line

They shouldn't be having children if they're on drugs and homeless.

The one pregnant should be absolutely taken of the streets, wth are they gonna do with a baby in that conditions?! So morally wrong to bring a child in this world to suffer like that

Been there. I know how it is. But good for me i never took drugs and i dont touch drugs or alcohol, and recently quit smoking in the last 5 weeks. Also i have a house now with me and my kids, so im thankful. Just remember if you can help someone as you dont know there story. Please help them

Poor baby, I feel sorry for people on the streets. But falling pregnant on drugs and on the streets in not on.

There have been times, when I have put myself in their shoes, gone out on the coldest nights, to feel what's like for these people. It makes me never forget, those shoes could fit my feet. It also, reminds me, of how lucky I am, and appreciate it. Unwanted, ignored,, stereotyped, rejected. These people are humans, not animals, and feel emotions like we all do. Every story is, different., but many have been abused. My heart goes to them all. As for the mentally ill, Is this what they call, care in the community is?.

God bless

They are housed again and again, but it doesn’t last.

I visited Bournemouth last year. As soon as I got of the train I had people asking for money.

Wow Mark looks well fit...

addicted babies is one of the saddest thngs.

It's important ,to set goals for yourself, towards the end of high school. Later on, if u end up on the street, u will wish u could support yourself

If you arrive via the RNLI you get 4 start hotels and all expenses paid, plus spending money. These homeless people need to be squatting in the council offices, asking where their free stuff is. Because they are entitled to it all, and more.

This is not right, most of these young girls, are inglish, yet they are putting people that come over hear in boats in hotels and giving them money, in my book charaty begins at home, our people should come first, there are good people around but our government should do more for our homeless

All tuff.

If governments had not "obliged" local councils to house dross from abroad, legal or otherwise then there would be plenty of housing for our own, and no one would be living on the streets!!

All these homeless people definitely have character and are very strong for surviving being homeless, they have much more character and personality than a lot of people

if the world wasnt the way it is and having to protect peoples identities and stuff for good reasons it would be nice if the people from the bbc that interviewed the people in this video could of made some sort of social media account for each person or something of that sort not with their full names or nothing like that just so that people who watch this video and other videos that want to help or able to help in any way are then able to contact that person and help in whatever way they can.....i know this videos from 5 years ago but i hope things have got or getting better for the people in this video and any others at that time and now

Sad vulnerable gals got drug problems n sleeping on the street. Their not homeless they chose to sleep on street and leave hostel n flats.

I see a pattern of blaming others in there lives instead of being responsible

when she said i feel so fustraited i need! i thought she was going to say i need to get a job but no live on the streets its easyier

I had to live outside in the cold of winter for three days once, and I swear, it really is hard.

People who have to live on the streets it is time That Council ms should rehoused them these Men and Women are Human for Goodness sake take care people

I used to live there so many homeless and squatters

Many homeless people suffer with mental illness and combined with the life they lead it's just tragic. These people should be priority over illegal migrants.

Aww that poor woman saying jails nice and she,d rather be in jail is very sad , it shows how dangerous and rough the streets are to say prisons nicer , it must be terrifying being homeless especially being just 21 god why haven't her family taken her in

Greedy landlords have taken over.

God bless them.we should not judge but try and help them get rehouse

This is heartbreaking 😢

I think the British government really needs to see this side of life , these poor unfortunate people really need some help in

Lady with red hair, you are very pretty and a warrior ❤️

Baby going into medical care, "cos of the medication im on" - Were not daft sweet, we know you mean your on the brown.

Tanya in the thumbnail...I knew her and her dog Soldier back in the day.

I am lost for words!!,,,,

Thanks MARGARET this is the christian legacy you left us

Whats in marks bottle of water?

"medication" = smack and crack, for anyone wondering!

When you have so much that has happened in your life like being failed by the care system and have lost family members sometimes homless follows them because of damaging childhoods past as well some people can't be fixed 😢😢😢😢

The length of this documentary would be cut in half if an editor went back to edit the phrase "do you know what I mean" out. YES, we speak English too...we know what you mean. Geez!

It's mental illness. Throw into mix drugs and booze and it's very difficult to escape the cycle. And you have to want to. 🥺

A tramps wash 😂we call it a hoares bath

No ownership just spice.

I have 0 sympathy for Jo Jo

We need more homeless women to bring their representation up. Homelessness had been the domain of men for too long. Girl power!

They have plenty of help available to them, don’t buy the sob stories, sleeping on the street is a choice and/or a product of drug abuse in this country, people who are unwilling to help themselves cannot be helped until they decide to accept it

Extremely sad, but I can never understand why kids don't get on with their parents and have to leave home. Second thing is, never get involved with drugs.

Wastrels!!!

She’s showing off because the camera is there, please believe me not all homeless people are like this, however don’t give them money buy things like for women sanitary products

Worklessness Causing Homelessness. Who Would Have Ever Thought Of That.

The couple that bought JoJo chips,how kind they were.

I live in Houston Texas. In our community we notice so many homeless they are asking for money is sad u can tell they are drug addicted

When jail is a better option… 😢

The hostels staff can throw them out in an hour. They hold that power. They seem to enjoy to hold the power over the homeless people. Rules are crazy and its like a prison. They can throw peout for v little and are often bullying the residents. Hostels can be v scary places to be. Drug adicts ex prisoners on release. Bed bugs. No smoking even a cigarette or yiur room is locked up and yr thrown out. Seems unfair the immigrants get housed and fed. The bullying in hostels is yet another factor including the staff.

Lady with a redhead really needs help… the other two with the pregnant woman are homeless because of drugs. He was smoking weed so they have money for that… no sympathy on that respect

The flats probably rented out

Inn sab logo ko dekhkar aaj ek baat samajh aaa gayi ki bhagwan iss duniya main nahi hai kyon ki agar hota toh insaan aaj itnaa majboor nahi hota agar tu hai or vakai tera koi astitva hai iss duniya main toh pls aise logo ki madad kar.

What no free hotels for this lot.

Wii got homes for migrants but wii can't offer homes to people that were born here in thier first place
