Throughout the winter we had a call for 1 of our clients. She was concerned that someone had moved into her garden shed. As it was the winter she didn't go into the garden as much as inside the summer months. 1 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 found some blankets and some takeaway food containers. She thought this was quite strange but thought that possibly 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 subsequent factor that occurred was a modest fire had been produced in the entrance towards 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 named us.
We decided to put up a covert camera pointing in the shed to get to the bottom of it. Right after a couple of days the tapes showed a filthy young man going into the shed and producing a fire. He sat huddled up by the fire all night. Our client had never noticed him prior to 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 aid the young man.
He was fairly 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 inside the neighbourhood. The social worker told him she could put him into care for the night and sort out his scenario in the morning. He is now with foster parents and doing nicely at school.
