Skinny Steve
Hi my name is Steve, I was homeless for 27 years and I lived in Southampton all my life. I became homeless after I was made redundant from my job at the docks and my marriage fell apart. I had no family as I was put into care age 12 ,after my mother could no longer take care of me.Being part of the homeless community I observed and I’m still observing, that far too many people have a stereotyped view of who we are and how we act, and do not look at us as human beings. It is time to get people to take notice of the homeless, remove the stigma and blame attached and lets really make a difference!
If everyone ignores the problem I am what you see…just a pile of bones!
Thanks for joining the group, I think I can create some effective awareness!
I will be moving around Southampton’s streets in the next few weeks, look out for me and tell your friends.
Take some pictures and upload, I’m not camera shy!
