Mildmay is very pleased to help promote this optimistic film of personal stories and journeys to health from people who have experienced and overcome homelessness. Film-maker CJ Barton interviewed people with lived experience of homelessness, sharing their stories with us through film.
The 12-minute film is produced by Dr Caroline Shulman, Co-Clinical Lead of the Homeless Health Programme at the Royal Free London NHS Foundation Trust. It was funded by NHS England and made with the assistance of our partner charities, PathwayUK and Groundswell.
This is the film's website, which contains a discussion guide to help foster reflective discussions with friends, peers or colleagues about homelessness. There are additional links and resources (reproduced below) and a feedback form to contact the film's makers.
While the tone of the film is optimistic, it does contain references to depression and suicide. If you need help, please contact 111, or speak to Samaritans on 116 123.
