How do I… help rough sleepers 

Homeless people have a hard life, so how can we help them? We read an article in the Guardian about how we can help rough sleepers.  " Should I give money? ". The most common answer is no! Why? If you give money to people on the streets it can make there life worse. Many people living on the streets want to forget about the fact that they are homeless so they buy drugs and alcohol with the money. What you can do is at least acknowledge them or even better give them food, just try not the give them money.  We are told to offer people sleeping rough food or a drink, or at the very least,  make some sort of  acknowledgement. It's hard being homeless and we should help people with no home.
