Hiding In The Open Leicester
Reverend Tim Blewett experienced 4 days & nights rough sleeping on the streets of Leicester to gain a personal insight. This experience will assist him in his role as a trustee of Action Homeless and help them raise awareness of the issues and create new services. All words below are his own and detail many of his experiences into one 24 hour timeline. They were captured on a digital voice recorder.
I'm pleased to have had the opportunity to film and photograph his experience and I'm pleased with how the blog turned out. Let's hope it helps raise awareness about the homelessness sector.
