You have evolved SO much as a person alfie. Your good hearted nature, selflessness and ability to stay humble is so apparent. I really applaud you for 1) not using your new car as click bait but talking about how lucky and thankful you are for having it, 2) discussing the homelessness problem and taking the time to actually sit down and learn from someone. You're an incredible content creator and I hope you know the impact you have on people. THANK YOU!

"The hardest thing about having everything is to see someone who has nothing" - me 2020

i’m still here!

That was a powerful message about homelessness and community. I think everyone can take something away form that about looking out for one another 🙏

My brother had a mission while he was alive, he was travelling around Europe being a homeless on purpose with the mission to shed some light on different difficulties about homelessness in different countries. Story about the man you saw reminded me of that. It's also been 5 years now since my brother died (suicide). ❤️

Last year I witnessed a little girl ask her dad if they could buy meals deals and pass them out to the homeless in the streets of our town and it was such an eye opener bearing in mind she was around 7 years old. Her dad was so proud and they bought 25 deals to hand out 🙌🏻

Thank you for the chat about homelessness. I’m sure you made his day just by talking to him and showing you cared about his well being.

I am a mum of 2 small children, I found it so lovely to watch you talk about how you are using your success to help others - your parents must be very proud of you! You have such a good head on your shoulders & a very kind heart Alfie.

Zoé is literally the best decorator that table and chairs in the conservatory is doing you guys wonders! I love that room 🥺❤️

11:07 man is could feel your emotions, I got really sad when you talked about the homeless guy, it’s especially sad that u knew him as a kid, and he got to this situation. I never actually saw someone care this much that actually took notes on places a homeless person goes to so he can help them more.

Alfie.. thank you for you honesty and humility. It is such a breath of fresh air to hear from a KZfaqr who genuinely cares and realizes just how precious and valuable life is. Bless you & Zoe, I adore you both xx

don’t know about anyone else but i LOVE a long vlog!

Thank you for addressing the issue of homelessness. So many youtubers just focus on themselves and their success and would NEVER go and speak to a homeless person especially if they knew them. You are such an amazing human being ❤️

I love that Zoe and Alfie are fighting over crepes and tacos.

You’re the loveliest person out there Alfie. Honest to god, your chat about your own emotions and how you personally handled it is so pure and thoughtful. It’s so rare to meet people like you. Thank you for existing and being you ♥️

What a wonderful approach to a conversation with a someone who is homeless. I will be following your lead and asking them the same questions about what local organizations have been most helpful to them and donating directly to those places (in addition to giving them food on the spot per usual). THANK YOU for sharing your wonderful, logical advice. Not only will this implement real change, it will also give the homeless an opportunity to reflect on who is available to help them and what they have done to help them in particular (come with suggestions if they are not aware of what is out there locally!) This is what I like to see from influencers!!!

I feel like Alfie would be a great “Major” kind of figure in a town. Always looks after the homeless, thinks clean electric and just overall has that attraction to him.

Who’s looking forward to vlogmas this year

Alfie I was a youth worker for 20 years and helped so many young people with all sorts of issues like homelessness. Like you it doesn’t truly hit till it’s personal. Then and only then can you speak from the heart.! Life throws us so many curveballs some seem so unfair but pain is what makes us who we are and that shapes our lives. You deserve all your success you have worked hard but you also give back. Thankyou for always being real and honest. But most off all Thankyou for always being empathetic and just being you. Love Leisa xx

Alfie is genuinely such an incredible person. He doesn’t brag. He is so generous behind the scenes. He is caring and loving. A humanitarian. He doesn’t even need to be these things but he is. So glad this is who I’ve been watching for all these years.

Alfie your vlog made me tear up and really think about my situation and to feel grateful in the moment. You are right we are collectively a community of human beings just trying our best. So glad we have someone so genuine and humble like you on a social media platform. Have watched and followed you and Zoe for about 5 years now. Sending virtual hugs and positivity to everyone from 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 ❤️

I'm still here, Alfie:) The relationship between Zoe and Alfie is like a goal, so sweet and warm, cozy... it makes my heart melt

My respect for Alfie was high, but it has just sky rocketed! Massive fkn respect, deep and insightful chat!

I'm still here(: What you said about the homeless person really got me thinking, and it inspired me to start looking for ways I can help out(: If anybody's reading this, please take even the smallest amount of your time each month/week/day/year to do the bet you cam and volunteer and help out where you can. Every bit helps, every smile, even a hot meal bought for a homeless person can change their whole week around. ♡

“Did you ask them if they do bites” 😂😂😂

Such a heartfelt part in this video, love how you are and how you make others more aware on things we can do to help others and appreciate what we have xxx mashaAllah xxx

Yo I’m still here Alfie. Do a would you rather with someone or a weird qna

thank you for talking about such an important topic and raising awareness, it’s so important anyway but especially at this time of year in the situation we are in

I'M STILL HERE!!! Thank you to you and Zoe for inspiring over the years!!

Why don't you and zoe do a joint vlogmas, where in of you both have the same experiences it either goes on your channel or zoes

My girlfriend is exactly like Zoë with food 😂😂😂 they don’t want it when it’s ordered until it comes and we have to go 50/50 or a bite which ruins it for me 😂😂😂

The thing u did with tge cafe owner is so thoughtful

this vlog was so powerful in many ways. I work in a supermarket and regularly serve a customer who bulk buys a lot of stuff. I one day got the courage to ask her why she bough so much and she spoke about a wonderful organization/charity but not sure what it really is. they meet up 2 times a week in a carpark in my local town and give out free meals to the homeless that come down, a nice hot meal. volunteers take it in tern to make a main meal and a pudding and they hand them out in the carpark and just stand and chat to the homeless. it's such a beautiful thing for them to do, iv'e recently starting donating to them. I don't have all the money but I know a few pounds here and their, will make a difference. they make snack packs that include water, packet of crisps, chocolate and a cereal bar ect.. and I often donate food for those. these snack packs are great for the days the organization can't get out and directly give a hot meal. I'm not saying all homeless do bad but if you ever want to help a homeless person, give them some food or a gift card to spend on food or something to keep them warm instead of direct money unless you know where that money goes.. even if you have no money just a smile as you walk past makes all the difference. too often people put there heads down and walk straight past a homeless person because they worry they will be harassed/begged at for money, that isn't aways the case and knowing your not forgotten and that kindness, happiness and good still exist's is beautiful . so always give a smile to someone as you walk past. it could Make there day.

Amazing, my son is only 12 and he is so like you with helping the homeless already! He will always ask to buy food if we pass somebody, the world needs people like this

I’m still here man! And love the new casual, legitimate and intimate style of these vlogs. Having watched you since the summer in the city days it’s like spending time with an old pal. Much love.

Bless your heart Alfie..you are truly a good person..The credit goes to your mum nd dad for raising you with the right values ❤

You’re a sweet man, Alfie. Thank you for working hard to make a positive impact on the world! 💓

when alfie started getting emotional I literally started tearing up too. You have such a good heart alfie! I hope that guy is doing well :)

This year for my daughter's advent calendar I'm creating a reverse advent. I'm going to buy 24 items which she will put into a box throughout December and then Christmas Eve will donate it to the local homeless shelter. Alfie you are amazing for doing so many amazing things for such vunrable people

I've been watching Alfie before he even had his drivers license!

I'm still here!... PS I just wanted to say how much you inspire me, even now after all these years of watching. You continue to evolve in new ways that have such a vastly positive effect on people's lives, to the extent that you may not even be able to imagine. So I just wanted to say thank you Alfie.

This choked me up so much. The Universe always has a way of bringing us back to our center and a different perspective and appreciation for things. I was inspired by Louise Pentland a few years ago to put together care packages with my daughter that included socks, tooth brushes, razors,wash cloths, soap, etc. Some we handed out directly and it really put me in my place to see the deep gratitude for a razor and a pair of socks. Even what seems like such a small thing can make a difference. It's so important to include our children in this as well so that they will learn to have a giving and caring heart and empathy for others.

I'm still here 😋 I also really appreciate that you decided to talk about homelessness. It made me realize again how grateful I am for all the things I have right now! Hearing these kinds of stories confirms my feeling that I have chosen the right study (social work) ! 😊 Thanks for the nice vlog!

Thank you for this amazing video, Alfie. This came at the right moment for me, as an American. Thanksgiving is tomorrow and this was a sweet reminder. The Universe gave you his experience as a reminder. And you gave me the gift of this reminder. Thank you. Our Universe connects us so much you in Brighton and me in Chicago. Thank you for always being a caring soul, Alfie. Blessings to you.

This grandma from Tennessee is still watching 😁 Love you kids. Happy Holidays to you, Zoe and Nala!

Love the colour of those joggers at the beginning Alfie

If I new it was going to be this long I would have got some popcorn ready😂 What a perfect end to the day!

It's so good to see you willing to grow continuously as a person by being mindful and grounded. So wholesome.

honestly, what a video. I so needed to see this, I've just bought my first car, I'm in my final year at uni and so easily get carried away with how hard done by I am. I like to think I'm a generous person. But never stop to think about how different my life could be right now. Love that you included this experience in this vlog - and I wanted to commend you for your hard work too, I know you don't want to appear as a savior or anything just doing what we all should if we can, but you do deserve a well done, considering not everybody would do the same in your position. I'm not usually one to comment but I genuinely have felt so touched by this video it felt necessary.

You're a good man, Alfie Deyes. You got me crying. I get so down sometimes because I had to move in with my daughter because of the covid situations and the shutdowns. I can't go anywhere because of health. You're right. I AM grateful that I can sit here on my laptop in my daughter's extra bedroom and watch you tube videos. Big hugs and stay safe.

I’m still here casually writing a paper

Don’t usually watch ur blogs anymore but I’m so glad I clicked on this one, it’s so lovely

Something similar happened to me and my brother where one of his closest childhood friends became homeless. We knew later on that he had schizophrenia and became a drug addict. It was a shocking experience. But thank you for reminding us that we must appreciate what we have everyday and that we shouldn't take anything for granted ❤️

I love how lowkey he keeps all the charity work he does it's so amazing and he's so right we can all do something to help people less fortunate than ourselves weather its giving money or just having a chat or promoting something.

You truly are an inspiration Alfie!! All the work you do inspires me to be a better person and I cannot thank you enough🤍 I watched a recent video from Byron who mentioned the topic of homelessness as he saw a guy in the street who he speaks to often. When they had a conversation he asked what he will do (staying on the streets or perhaps going to a hostel nearby) given the current situation. He replied ‘I’ll just be here’🥺 on the streets too whilst everyone stays home. Byron was so devastated because it puts into perspective how lucky we actually are. Watching this KZfaq video at home, like you said, on a phone, tv, iPad... we’re so sooo fortunate to have the life we do🥺 I commented my experience with a guy me and my mum use to see, and we’d always stop and have a chat, buy him hot food and drinks. Then one day we never saw him, and still never to this day😔 I pray to god he’s okay... I feel like this topic is beginning to come to light more as were currently in our second lockdown. It gives me hope that there will be something soon that will benefit those who are homeless. But as a community, we all, like you said also, can do something to make a change. It doesn’t have to cost anything to make some changes in the places we live in. One thing I’ve started doing is volunteering as a Good Samaritan Responder. Not only does it give me a warm feeling knowing I’m helping the community, but it overwhelms me knowing I might be the only person someone talk to in a day and but I’ve been able to be that person they talk to🤍 instead of scrolling through social media for 10 minutes, you could instead have a 10 minute call with someone in your local community and that will make their day. Just to ask how they are. It means so much. Like they say, it’s the little things in life😇Xxxx

Got emotional this vlog. It has been a pleasure to watch you mature and share more over the last few years I have been watching (started watching your content on and off over the 8 years or so I have been watching Zoe’s content). It’s inspiring to see how much you care for your local community and looking for ways to reach out and help. I really appreciated this video.

I'm still here! Also really enjoyed the talk about the homeless person you knew. Really puts things into perspective.

I'm never this early! Awesome to see a longer video from Alfie as well! Really love watching these kind of videos from both Alfie and Zoe ^^

I noticed you got a Tesla, but I assumed I missed the announcement in another video. We just bought a Tesla and love it!! My husband mostly drives it, and I want a larger one like yours ❤️

Been loving the content at the moment though!!

I'm still here! Greetings from the USA! I just want to say thank you for your Vlogs. I really do appreciate them. They always make me smile and also give me food for thought. This vlog also reminds me how truly fortunate I am even when there are days that I think I am not. You are truly a blessing to this world and I hope you never forget that. Wishing you peace, love and happiness.

I wonder if theres any way that your business could hire homeless people to work? I know that one of the hardest things is getting a job once homeless

I’m so ready for this vlog, I’ve been watching all your old ones today :)

I'm still here lol o/ I watch KZfaq videos while I'm cleaning down my kitchen for the evening as sad as that is! You're so sweet, you brought a tear to my eye when you were talking about the person you met in the street. Your honesty is such a breath of fresh air

I appreciate a lot you sharing your emotions about that encounter with your previous acquaintance. Raw emotions. Makes me like your vlogs even more.

it's always a shock to see where different people's paths have taken them, particularly when they're so divergent. i hope brighton can allocate even more resources to helping homeless people, not only their immediate needs (food, shelter) but also in the long-term (rehabilitation, homing programs).

I rarely comment on videos, but I’ve been watching you for a while now and I really appreciated and enjoyed how you talked about your experience with the young man that was homeless. I think it shows how much a good person you are and it really made me think about my life. Just wanted to let you know.

I'm still here!! Thank you for all that you do! It's been so amazing watching you and your channel and content grow and change over the years. You're amazing!

Thank you Alfie for taking your fortunate life and sharing if with others. A lot of very fortunate people do not care or donate to those in need. It just shows what type of person you are.

Hi Alfie you are a awesome person and just by sitting and taking the time to chat to the guy just something small would mean so much to him, me and my family were homeless about 20yrs ago now and it was awful and people could be so mean . So always stay real Alfie and thank you so much xxxxx❤️

Hey Alfie! Hope u're doing great. Just wanna let you know that you're one of the most inspiring, thoughtful and sweetest person ever. Keep doing what you're doing. And also, please do more longer vlogs! I love it! 😍

29:34 I’m still here! Thank you for all your videos over the years Alfie! Thank you for keeping me sane during lockdown with the vlogs and I miss your streams!! Also all of us in sub chat want you to come back to discord!!! 💜 #ImStillSubbedOnTwitch

I swear Zoe put that food on her insta story, it looked amazing 🤩

I’m definitely still here! Love these vlogs SO much. Thank you for doing all that you do for the homeless community ❤️. You just never know someone’s story on how they got there. They need the love too, so thank you again for sharing your story in this vlog.

first of all still here, second of all, i sometimes come back to ur channel as i was a massive fan when i was younger and u and Zoe were a massive part of my childhood, and seeing this video was just so nice. you haven’t turned into a money greedy KZfaqr like so many have over the years, u have matured alot and really care about your audience and people around u. just really nice to see. stay happy, have a lovely evening x

Hey Alf! usually never drop down to write a comment but this story really got me in so many ways. Today was such a mundane day, everything the same as the last and during my walk this evening I thought how boring my life is. As I looked into the windows of my neighbors I pictured myself being older and everything seemed so predictable and foreseeable to me. I am usually a very grateful person even but today I just lost that perspective completely. I am so incredibly happy that I turned to watch your vlog tonight and I am thankful for you speaking so directly to the camera and right to me about this particular topic. Such an important reminder to think beyond myself and be thankful even for the most tiny thing, like watching this vlog in a warm place. Just wanted to share my thought and thank you! Have a good night. :)

Thank you so much for sharing the story about running into someone you knew from your past-it really struck a chord with me. Recently I learned that a good friend I’d lost touch with from my past has been living in a women’s shelter with her child. Sometimes, especially in this difficult year, I can get caught up in my own (minor, meaningless in the bigger scheme of things) dramas and I lose all perspective. Thank you for sharing your story today, it was a good reality check and made me stop, think, and recalibrate. 🙌🏻

I stayed through the whole video, Alfie. I was working on my thesis and realized that you uploaded a 30 mins video. I was like, fuck yes! This is my day. xD I enjoyed it till the end. ♥

I'm still here! This also hit me hard with what you were saying about the person who you seen and was struggling and his things can change so quickly - I feel like this has been the case more than ever this year and it's so heartbreaking 🖤. I definately agree with being more community focused and people should invest their efforts here

Alfie I have a condition called acalasia and have problems swallowing food to but the hospital said swallow something fizzy to help food go down which is better than still liquid ....it works believe me ....u could try sparking water xx

You never come off as ungrateful, and you always make a point about appreciating and giving back, but STILL..... For that gratitude speech in the beginning, from one human to another, all the love ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Your kindness and your caring for others are the most amazing qualities about you. I can just feel through the screen how good of a person you are. Appreciate you very much. ❤️

i'm still here, always here til the end . i love long vlogs. todays was amazing, the message about the man you knew from when you were younger was heartfelt and I am thankful for the reminder of how lucky we all are .

Had to pause it half way through just to say you’re very appreciated and good things come to those who are good! Keep being great you’re the change you want to see In the world :)

Wow I never comment on videos but had to on this one. Man Alfie, it's amazing that you shed light on such an important topic in such a powerful way. You truly are a beautiful person and I'm glad that you use your platform to educate people. Gives a lot to think about and definetly going to try and do my share in helping people in need. Thank you Alfie.

I was literally just watching the eating tasty foods video hehe I love Alfie posting loads

I like to write three things I'm grateful for every day to help keep me grounded. it's especially impactful when I'm having a hard day or going through a rough time and I'm struggling to think about what's good in my life. Today I'm grateful for 1.) Seeing this video 2.) The health of my friends and family 3.) The meal I'll be sharing with friends tomorrow for thanksgiving.

I'm still here as usual !! Love your chill vlogs, it allows me to relax and not think about what's going on in my life for a bit ! thanks a lot for that xx

Loved this vlog Alfie. You’re such a kind, empathetic person and so deserving of the success and good fortune you have as you use it so well to help others. Loving the podcast too! ❤️

Still here! Enjoying your blogs and so proud of your accomplishments . Keep up the great work!

I’m grateful that you will be uploading more, I love ur vlogs:)

Your story was so powerful! I love that you are such a good person on the inside. That’s what counts.

I really enjoyed the deep talk about homelessness. Feel free to be open about things that keep you awake at night. It doesn't have to be negative topics all the time but sharing deep thoughts and listening to people always build a strong connection for me.

I'm still here....

I'm still here, i love long videos. i am from italy and we have a lockdown, you keep me company. thank you alfie, you are inspiring and keep me company

Alfie not sure if you hear this so often but I'm honestly so proud of you as a person who's been watching you since 2011/12(?). The way you've evolved into sure a nice, humble and helpful person and how genuine you are shines right through the camera. Continue doing what you do! And as a wise man once said, do more of what makes you happy! :) PS. Don't feel guilty for rewarding yourself for your own hard work. PPS: I'm still here aha

On the topic of homelessness...there’s this 1 guy I always see sat under a bridge (not by a river or anything, don’t worry) he uses it for shelter and is there because people walk past after getting transport. Not gonna name the location for privacy reasons. But whenever I used to have my old job he’d be there when I finished and I would save my change for this man, me and girlfriend went past him one evening and I said I know him and stood there and had a chat asking about his day and what things he has been doing. He didn’t have much to say sadly because he doesn’t have much money to go to cafes and get hot drinks during this cold weather. Even if I didn’t have change when I’d go to work I would always put the change aside when I got paid to give it to him. During these insanely struggling times even giving what you have can really help out and do something positive for someone who is less fortunate. He’s a lovely human being and deserves to be treated no less than anyone else. Comment your stories if you wish as a reply to this comment, would love to hear what people do for the communities.

i agree with zoe about the crepe situation hahaha

I love your vlogs. You are so upbeat and down to earth. You have such a caring heart. Can't wait for the next.

I'm still here! I find it relaxing to watch a chatty vlog lol.. You have such a good heart! Hope the homeless guy is going to be ok? Take care to all, have a good one!
