So while you guys are ending your working week and a kicking back with some tunes or a drink, mine is just beginning. The night shelter is toasty warm, clean bedding is on and in 25 minutes I’ll have 17 fellas wanting a brew and some dinner. Stay safe and be kind 💙

3 years ago my Dad lost his dad and then his two dogs within a short space of time. He’s not been the same since, but heartache does that to you. My dad is 60 in a couple of weeks. I think my mum just helped him heal a little. From grown man to small boy in seconds! ♥️

This morning I attended the saddest funeral I have ever been to. 4 mourners in the rain. No family, no friends. Just 4 mourners from professional bodies. I cried all the way home. His name was Martin. He was an arsenal fan, he lived and he was cared for. X

Perfectly encapsulated in less than 60 seconds - the ascendency of the power of music as a uniting force over age, race and social standing. A message that has transcended generations. The Specials - You’re Wondering Now, live at Colchester Institute almost 43 years ago. 🖤

Neil Young performing on The Johnny Cash Show in 1971. The melancholy melody and Young’s delivery add weight to the lyrics and the brevity of the track only makes it more impactful in my opinion. The Needle And The Damage Done.

Say what you will about the roses, but that first album is bursting with fancy fuckin magic. Squire’s fire fingers. Ian’s less-than-perfect, gritty vocals underlaid by the groove master Mani. All tightened up by Reni’s harmonies, his shimmer and pace the big fat cherry on top!

Hearing my dad idly comment on how lovely it was to have us all together, his kids and grandkids, I could have cried. I don’t even know whether anyone else heard it. He was just pondering. What a wonderful thing to be filled with gratitude for. No Sunday blues. Cheers loves x

5 months ago my lad was talked down from a car park roof in the small hours by MH first-aiders and police. This weekend he’s been hitting all the London hipster hotspots with his girlfriend and doing what 17 yr olds do. He’s rediscovering his vitality and it’s beautiful to see.

Easily one of the most powerful sets of pipes and possibly the best set of pins in music… not to mention her formidable stage presence. Tina Turner ♥️ 📸 Patrice Habans

Small Faces performing Hey Girl on German TV show Beat, Beat, Beat in 1966. If there’s one thing I love about their live performances it’s the little wry smiles and glances. Love their energy.

This week I’ve laughed, cried (a lot), conducted assessments & manhunts, seen tremendous break throughs, housed people & administered agitators to stop an overdose while the paramedics were en route. I would normally be at the pub but tonight I need tea, tunes & calm. Cheers! X

Best suitcase I’ve ever packed! It’s rehab day for my client! Last night I went shopping for him because he deserves the dignity of rocking up with his own suitcase of clean, fresh clothes (and I’ve stashed a good luck note in there too, rolled into some joggers!). Let’s go ✊🏻

Isn’t it strange that the one thing that is likely to soothe me is the one thing I can’t bring myself to engage with just yet. I love sharing music. Can you send me a song? I’ll make a playlist and when I’m ready I’ll listen to it. I’d appreciate it. x 🤍 x

In stark contrast to yesterday’s sad post… Emma recently came off the streets. Today we helped her celebrate her 40th birthday with a shit ton of chocolate. The average age of death for women experiencing roughsleeping is 43… Hopefully we’ll be here to celebrate many more! 🩷

Just been approached by a man I don’t recognise at all… “Siân- it’s me. You don’t recognise me do you?!” Turns out I housed him around 18 months ago and he looks FANTASTIC! I could have cried! 😭 x

Proud of the boy. 2 months ago he faced one of the worst depressive episodes he’s had. Foiled suicide plans. Hospital trips. Mental health assessments. Substance misuse. Today he took himself to Dublin for a break. Made his way to O’Connell’s for his mama’s side 🇮🇪💚☘️ x

My name is Siân and I am quite fat. I’m also 5ft 2in. It is 30° in my SW facing garden. I have just assembled a gazebo on my own. I am sweating from my eyeballs and my knees and I can feel my heartbeat in my skin, my tongue and my teeth. This is how I die. X
