Glasgow homeless charity find 29 rough sleepers on streets in pouring rain

A charity which provides safe places and support for people experiencing, or at risk of, homelessness carried out their latest rough sleeper count in Glasgow last week - and made a heartbreaking discovery.

Within just three hours of scouring the streets - in areas including the city centre, west end, east end, southside and north of the city - they identified 29 people rough sleeping.

"All teams had one staff member trained in Naloxone and as such, every team had a kit with them, they were also provided with a torch and map of areas to cover."
