Just read an interesting interview with a woman called Kerri Douglas, who used to sleep rough. Here's an interesting quote, for all of us who have pontificated about the man outside Boots:
"She does not give money to homeless people. She feels it best to give food or donate to a homeless charity — she highly rates St Mungo’s, which helped her so much. When she would withdraw from drugs, she would be wretched from emotional and physical pain, and vow to get clean. The sight of her crying would prompt people to give her money, and she would seek the oblivion of drugs again, on “a hamster wheel”.
