Scotcast - What’s it like to be homeless?

What’s it like to be homeless?

Download What’s it like to be homeless?

As homelessness stats reach record highs in Scotland, the team asks what it’s really like not to have a home.

We talk to the editor of The Big Issue, Paul McNamee, and Sylvia Douglas, who experienced homelessness as a child and now supports women in poverty, about how to fix this complicated problem.

And Martin and Laura discuss whether they’re sick of looking at their own faces.
