Throughout the winter we had a call for one of our customers. She was concerned that somebody had moved into her garden shed. As it was the winter she didn't go into the garden as a lot as in the summer months. One weekend she decided to clear up all of the fallen apples and pears from the trees. Although she was out there she went into the shed and she found some blankets and some takeaway food containers. She believed this was quite strange but believed that perhaps 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 next thing that occurred was a tiny fire had been made inside the entrance to the shed and there were much more blankets and rubbish. She known as the Police and they suggested she would get a quicker response if she named us.
We decided to put up a covert camera pointing at 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 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 assist him. The next night a social worker and our client went out into the garden to see if they could support 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 along with other gardens inside the neighbourhood. The social worker told him she could put him into care for the night and sort out his scenario within the morning. He is now with foster parents and performing properly at school.
