During 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 significantly as within the summer months. One weekend she decided to clear up all of the fallen apples and pears from the trees. Even though she was out there she went into the shed and she discovered some blankets and some takeaway food containers. She believed this was quite strange but believed that perhaps her teenage son and his pals 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 next factor that happened was a little fire had been made within the entrance towards the shed and there were more blankets and rubbish. She called the Police and they suggested she would get a quicker response if she named us.
We decided to put up a covert camera pointing in the shed to get towards the bottom of it. Following a couple of days the tapes showed a filthy young man going into the shed and creating a fire. He sat huddled up by the fire all night. Our client had never ever noticed him ahead of 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 home and had been sleeping rough in our client’s garden and other gardens inside the neighbourhood. The social worker told him she could put him into care for the night and sort out his circumstance in the morning. He is now with foster parents and performing nicely at school.
