I am not a "streetie" but I was six years ago. I am now flatting. I am here to support those [who] are homeless. It is pretty bad at the moment here.

I used to be homeless three years ago. I will always support those [who] are still out there on the streets. This is the second march I have been to for them.

I am not homeless but I think we should be looking after these people, especially as many have mental health issues. They are very vulnerable. My home has a thermal unit heating it, those on the streets are not so lucky.

There are so many people with nowhere to go. I have come to support them.
