In the course of the winter we had a call for 1 of our clients. She was concerned that an individual had moved into her garden shed. As it was the winter she did not go into the garden as considerably as within the summer months. One weekend she decided to clear up all the fallen apples and pears from the trees. Whilst she was on the market she went into the shed and she found some blankets and some takeaway food containers. She thought this was really strange but believed that perhaps her teenage son and his friends had had a sleepover inside the shed.
She quizzed her son and he said that they wouldn’t sleep in there as the roof leaked and there was no electricity. The next thing that happened was a little fire had been created inside the entrance to the shed and there had been more blankets and rubbish. She named the Police and they suggested she would get a quicker response if she referred to as us.
We decided to put up a covert camera pointing at the shed to obtain towards the bottom of it. After a couple of days the tapes showed a filthy young man going into the shed and making a fire. He sat huddled up by the fire all night. Our client had by no means noticed him prior to and as he seemed so young she wanted to help him. The next night a social worker and our client went out into the garden to see if they could assist the young man.
He was quite polite but looked exhausted. He had run away from his residence and had been sleeping rough in our client’s garden and other gardens in the neighbourhood. The social worker told him she could put him into care for the night and sort out his scenario within the morning. He is now with foster parents and performing well at school.
