Throughout the winter we had a call for 1 of our customers. She was concerned that a person had moved into her garden shed. As it was the winter she didn't go into the garden as significantly as within the summer months. One weekend she decided to clear up all of the fallen apples and pears from the trees. While she was available she went into the shed and she identified some blankets and some takeaway food containers. She thought this was quite strange but believed that maybe her teenage son and his buddies had had a sleepover within 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 subsequent thing that happened was a little fire had been made inside the entrance to the shed and there had been far more blankets and rubbish. She referred to as the Police and they suggested she would get a quicker response if she known as us.
We decided to put up a covert camera pointing at the shed to get to the bottom of it. Following 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 never noticed him just before 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 fairly polite but looked exhausted. He had run away from his property and had been sleeping rough in our client’s garden as well as other gardens inside the neighbourhood. The social worker told him she could put him into care for the night and sort out his situation within the morning. He is now with foster parents and doing nicely at school.
