For the duration of 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 did not go into the garden as a lot as within the summer months. One weekend she decided to clear up all of the fallen apples and pears from the trees. Whilst she was out there she went into the shed and she identified some blankets and some takeaway food containers. She thought this was really strange but believed that possibly her teenage son and his friends had had a sleepover within the shed.
She quizzed her son and he stated that they wouldn’t sleep in there as the roof leaked and there was no electricity. The subsequent thing that occurred was a small fire had been created in the entrance towards the shed and there were more blankets and rubbish. She referred to as the Police and they suggested she would get a quicker response if she called us.
We decided to put up a covert camera pointing in the shed to get to the bottom of it. Soon after a couple of days the tapes showed a filthy young man going into the shed and generating a fire. He sat huddled up by the fire all night. Our client had never ever seen him before and as he seemed so young she wanted to help him. The subsequent night a social worker and our client went out into the garden to see if they could support the young man.
He was really polite but looked exhausted. He had run away from his house and had been sleeping rough in our client’s garden as well as other gardens within the neighbourhood. The social worker told him she could put him into care for the night and sort out his scenario inside the morning. He is now with foster parents and performing well at school.
