What many people don't realise is that almost anyone can suffer a sudden change of circumstances and end up homeless, or disabled and homeless. When I was working for the adult mental health service as a social worker in triage I heard so many people tell me their stories of how their circumstances had suddenly changed leaving them alone and with almost nothing.
My grandmother used to have a saying, 'There but for fate goes thee and me', and I've always remembered that.

Absolutely! The more robust the social systems are, the better protected every citizen is. That includes us.
