KEY TAKEAWAYS
BEST MOMENTS
"I was homeless at the age of 14, never finished school. So the only thing for me to do to, to escape and try and find a real family unit and connection was to join the military."
"When I picked that phone up and spoke to somebody, I was actually told that was too complex for the service. And to take myself to A&E. And I was wished all the best, and the phone was put down on me."
"If they were willing to buy the property, do it up, and then wait for their return on investment, so then becomes a longer game, that would work."
"Because it's not just veterans who are struggling. Homelessness, it's vast."
"If we can make it work on that rate...then we're fine."
