A really important message shared by a charity we work really closely with in Bradford.
A quote from our film, nominated for the Charity Film Awards.
“I don’t believe that people wake up from a fantastic life and think ‘I’m gonna sleep on the streets and take drugs today.’”
We made this film to share the real stories behind homelessness, the people we support, and the outreach team who walk alongside them every day.
It exists to challenge assumptions and show the complexity behind homelessness, shaped by trauma, health, loss and systems failing, not choice.
