Arriving in Liverpool after 9pm for the first time I was quite shocked by how many tents and camps there were between Lime Street and our hotel. It’s great that you’re using your channel to bring awareness and offer help and support too ❤
Yes that’s true. They sleep in the day because one man said to me because he got some help and he was in the hotel. He said they don’t sleep at night because people are more violent to them and he said that once a man pissed all over him and beer on him And he wasn’t asleep. He was just sitting in the doorway isn’t it? Hopefully something can be help 😱😱
unfortunately the influx of 'economic migrants' from africa totally does these guys no favours ..-they are organised into begging groups , they have a roof over their heads and work in a very ordered manner ...-its sick the way our so called 'government' has betrayed the real inhabitants of this country . . . .!
Great Job In Helping The Homeless...And They Do Recieve Welfare Benefits .But Remember The Fuller Cost To All Other People, Children & Businesses Who Also Count Too ! Its okay to get it wrong ..sometimes !. Nice Job Kev. LEST WE FORGET !
Them teams are just making the problem even worse by the looks of it. Just think if people are handing them out food and essentials etc everyday then it’s just going to attract even more people and any money they would of needed to use on food etc will be getting used on spice etc it’s obvious
it's Disgraceful seeing this on any , Any street ... These people are unwell, They need TLC. .. housing , doctors , courses to rehabilitation these people. Your doing a good job .

It's such a hard process to get someone through detox and rehab, and into a programme where community reintegration is practised. Also, in terms of housing, you have to ensure that you aren't setting someone up to fail so they lose their tenancy. There is also a cycle of addiction, criminality and homelessness that's really difficult to break. While not everyone is in this rut, a percentage of the guys I worked with said they had no addictions before they had to live on the streets. This is all the result of the governmentental incumbents 15 years ago withdrawing funding to this sector. Will it change? Probably not. They really don't care. I'm glad you're doing this and haven't given up, Kev. It's so important to keep raising this issue repeatedly. The powers that be cannot be allowed to forget.
HI Kev Great video again so just asking we know that LFC got some money from the Taylor Swift concerts and will get some more from Pink so how much money does the council get from these concerts I am sure this could be used to help the homeless,if I am wrong about this I apologise. Again thank you for sharing.
Hi Kev. The government will not fund local council's regarding the homeless because theirs no profit to be made for it !!!!. We need a proper rehabilitation plan. Medicals. Counselling, Etc.
Its so sad how many people are in this situation, whether its their own fault or because of unfortunate circumstances. As you know Kev, we help a lot of homeless Vets, and generally they're in a better situation than the other homeless guys that are out there, but it is still really sad to think about the guys who are out there and who feel like their only way to escape the terrible situation, is to take drugs, especially that Spice. Spice is absolutely horrendous, and having seen quite a few documentaries about how much it ruins peoples lives, it breaks my heart to see these young lads and ladies ruining their lives for a high that is absolutely destroying their bodies. Thanks for bringing this to the light Kev, its necessary for the wider public to see just how horrendous this situation is
It's very sad and great you're showing the true impact and devastation drugs is causing everywhere but here on our doorstep. Everyone has a story I wish it would register that a temporary high and fix is a possible lifetime of suffering not only for the addicts but for their families and the local communities because of the crime it causes . Helps out there who wants to live this sort of lifestyle. There are addicts on scripts who now live normal lives , I sound like I'm full of condemnation, I genuinely wish these individuals would see the light and live normal lives mainly for their own sake no person should live like this and partly for their families and the community reducing crime . These people do deserve help but if these individuals don't accept it, that's a choice any person needs to want to help themselves .
@@KarenTurner-ti4jq thanks Karen for them kind words could be your family who have addiction problems you still would love them despise drug dealers don't care about the damage there doing to society just making money off the vulnerable
So many so sad .They have a budget for the addicts but it has to be them who make the call numbers are given out .They just need to say i need help with this .In the meantime they have to be fed to be kept alive . After all they are human beings so many people dont see them as human Speaking to a gentleman last time i was there he only wanted a hot drink but were so grateful that someone cared.Hey those tents for sale made me laugh.
Towns just gone to the dogs unfortunately, don't even really go anymore. The spirit of it is gone. It's frightening that there are more and more tents popping up. It wasn't that long ago that all you used to get was the occasional beggar and people selling the big issue. The council have got a lot to answer for, they don't care about the people of Liverpool, all there arsed about is students and tourists etc.
You cannot educate entrenched homeless about anything .. 30 yrs in the madness is a hard thing to change .. no funding no services no venues to educate .. why would the council want to fix the homeless there would be job losses in the council if you fixed the homeless … 20 yrs working with the homeless in Liverpool in Wirral and the council and government is the problem not the homeless .. housing first model then the services go into make tenancy ready and guess what … no tenancy’s

Exactly that Ste
They would rather build students accommodation Joe's legacy
Sad government's and councils have let the homeless down I know you have to help yourself as well but some of the homeless can't help themselves
exactly ..yet they are quick to allow in 'economic migrants' to suck the blood from our very Lands . .
They've let themselves down too. Not everyone else is to blame.

Great vlog keep up great work in sydney australia its Ice the problem
Cheers Ian
Seemed to be loads of tents in town today
Less than normal though as a lot have been moved on
It's seems to be getting worse so sad. What can we do to make the necessary changes.
Quite a lot by the look of things
Seen a homeless person today on bold st had a sign on his tent saying ex army and he had a full army suit on...seemed a bit sus to me
Yes mate, that does my nut in being ex military. It’s easy to put a blag number on a sign. I ask them military questions to try and catch them out

The council won’t acknowledge that there is a problem
Hi Kev. The government will not fund local council's regarding the homeless because theirs no profit to be made for it !!!!. We need a proper rehabilitation plan. Medicals. Counselling, Etc.
So it’s got to be a volunteer based system?
@Kevcupo Yes, Kevin. No doubt

They’ve got to help themselves before others can help them
People should not be judgemental not everyone on the street is a junkie could be any of us if we lose are jobs or housing benefit in it lad
Referring to people as 'junkies' isn't being judgemental? 🤔
@@ewanrussel2414 I used to be one I was a ex junkie so you can't really say I am being judgemental 👍👍👍👍
Yes I can - I did 🤷

You’re right, every building going up is either a hotel or student accommodation
😮
My family members are homeless and are in this video this upsets me
I was on that bus stuck at the lights by Yanni's chippy
Inconsiderate driver blocking the road
@@Kevcupo Both the Stagecoach drivers weren't too happy about it. I was on the St Helens bound bus
Just bring back San Francisco 67.. Candlestick Park.. keep it LSD and ❤️
If people came of the drugs there is no we’re for them to live Liverpool is full no accommodation 🇬🇧🏴
Everyone knows. Drugs ain’t good but they still use it ?
That is correct
Blanks reality out.
You cannot educate entrenched homeless about anything .. 30 yrs in the madness is a hard thing to change .. no funding no services no venues to educate .. why would the council want to fix the homeless there would be job losses in the council if you fixed the homeless … 20 yrs working with the homeless in Liverpool in Wirral and the council and government is the problem not the homeless .. housing first model then the services go into make tenancy ready and guess what … no tenancy’s
Shocking when you think about it that migrants who come in in boats get put up in 4 star hotels yet homeless people here arnt entitled to anything!
They are real people who cant live under a slave system...You can because you dont mind being 1
Good job there's mugs like me working & paying tax eh? to keep any services running at all for bums like yourself.
