An excellent, unsensationalist article about the daily tribulations of homeless people who fall into the purview of the local justice system, without having many resources to help them amend their lives in a way that might help them avoid such difficulties in future.
I have just read this article and found it so sad. I know it sound a bit idealistic but when Middlewood hospital was open, people who were desperate and on the streets could go there and be given a decent meal before making their way back to the streets. It's no wonder they end up in court after all they have nothing to lose.

Thanks Sue. Really glad you liked it.
Best piece of local journalism I’ve read in years. Keep it up!
Thanks John 🙏
