Would be really interested to hear your thoughts/guidance on this please.
I live in London at the moment, and I see a lot of homeless people every day.
I'm sure that there are also a lot of homeless people in other towns and cities across the U.K., and that the number of people in this situation will either increase or decrease over time depending on various factors e.g. the amount of social security available to people who are struggling financially.
Anyway... my question is (AIBU to ask) how can we help homeless people most effectively?
Is it best to:
A) give money to people directly
B) to help in a more indirect way (for example, by donating to charities involved in helping homeless people or people in financial difficulty, volunteering for these charities, donating to food banks, helping out at food banks or any other way)
C) to do a combination of both A and B.
Thanks very much.
