Adrian is sleeping rough homeless on the streets of London

- I met Adrian on a rainy day in London. He was trying to sell umbrellas to get by. Adrian has been on the streets sleeping rough for a year now - this time.
As a youth Adrian spent a few years homeless. But worked hard to change his life and ended up working as the business development manager for bank. When the economic crisis hit he lost his job and couldn't afford to pay rent on his flat anymore.
He did go into a hostel for a short while but when he got behind on payments he was back on the streets.
Adrian tells the very real story of violence on the streets of London. Our friends sleeping rough are never safe. It's horrible living on the streets of any city.
Adrian has a dream of starting a t-shirt shop. He's even setup a Facebook page with his designs / 138220812967783
Adrian has 2 wishes: a flat and a job!
2017 update on Adrian. Not only didn't someone help him start a t-shirt shop, a young woman his age saw this video and connected with him. The two fell in love and were married this year.

About Invisible People:
Since its launch in November 2008, Invisible People has leveraged the power of video and the massive reach of social media to share the compelling, gritty, and unfiltered stories of homeless people from Los Angeles to Washington, D.C. The vlog (video blog) gets up close and personal with veterans, mothers, children, layoff victims and others who have been forced onto the streets by a variety of circumstances. Each week, they’re on InvisiblePeople.tv, and high traffic sites such as TH-cam, Twitter and Facebook, proving to a global audience that while they may often be ignored, they are far from invisible.
Invisible People goes beyond the rhetoric, statistics, political debates, and limitations of social services to examine poverty in America via a medium that audiences of all ages can understand, and can’t ignore. The vlog puts into context one of our nation’s most troubling and prevalent issues through personal stories captured by the lens of Mark Horvath - its founder - and brings into focus the pain, hardship and hopelessness that millions face each day. One story at a time, videos posted on InvisiblePeople.tv shatter the stereotypes of America’s homeless, force shifts in perception and deliver a call to action that is being answered by national brands, nonprofit organizations and everyday citizens now committed to opening their eyes and their hearts to those too often forgotten.
Invisible People is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to changing the way we think about people experiencing homelessness.

This geezer had a decent job and everything, just goes to show. Need to be grateful for what you have
Yep, this channel has a way of getting you to count your blessings for sure.
there is something special in his eyes
Lovely intelligent honest man. Again. So many of these interviews reflect our misjudgements about homeless people. I hope Adrian manages to stay safe.
So true! There are so many talented and interesting people that go homeless due to a misfortune or a type of abuse...people like us that lose what they had overnight!
Hi this is my brother and to let you all know he died 18months ago of stomach cancer and to say he was living in Sweden and he was married and he was a manger of a pharmacarcle company so he did turn hes life around again in the end he even had hes own clothes lable akat clothing on Facebook and he had hes own art gallery were he painted so he did well in the end people can change if they work hard for it

Maximum respect Adrian. I checked out your designer label - Akat Clothing. I live in Oxfordshire but absolutely love sneaking down into London (City of dreams for a small town boy like me) at least every other month. Next time I'm down that way I'll pick up a T-shirt to show some support.

That's so great 👍. Congratulations to you Adrian. I wish you greater things to come.

Sharp guy. I'd hire him in a heartbeat!
Hire meh pls OwO !
Hehe, the trouth is, he’s now probably too expensive for you to hire. -:) No offense ;)
He’s doing allright!
@@Dolencd how do you know? I would love to have an update on him.
@@caterinas6863 I believe I did some digging online about this bloke. He had a fashion show in London. Did great, also looked like the worst is far behind.
@@Dolencd I’m pleased for him. Somebody said he married a Swedish lady?
That's terrible! Glad you are ok tho and glad you found a place to live!
People judge so much. Don't listen to them. Keep good people in your life and ignore the trolls - both on and offline. They have nothing of value to contribute.
wow fking amazing! i just checked ur fb and ur doing quite well! you know how to get rich from being just there on street! most of the homeless wants to have opportunity like you!
What a handsome and talented man! Its a pity hes on the street after all the interesting jobs he had! I hope an employer is watching this and give him a chance!
God bless this gentleman!
Your designs are awesome
God Bless You 🌷❤️ May God helps him.
Glad you found work and a wife man
It's in times like this, you find out who your real friends are. If you have the money, everybody wants to be your friend. Without it,, you are nothing.
thank you
Most of us have never had to face homelessness and it can be hard to empathise, but there are so many people in the situation today it does make you reflect that if things were to go pears up it could literally be anyone. Thankfully I have a close family that would never see me on the streets.
I am so , but soooo happy for this guy!!! 👍👍👍👍
this is one handsome man

@@adrianekenhall4658 Thank God for saving you of the streets man!
Turn your way to God.
Read the Holy Bible, read the New Testament in it for the Gospel.
Go to church and pray God for forgiveniss of your sins through the powerful work of His Son Jesus Christ. Amen.
Best to you!
A spirit with out a body..
He doesn't even look homeless does he not unkempt appears perfectly sane clean looking
i was homeless in ireland for 3 years and the hostel i was in cost 107 euro per week and i only got paid 188 euro a week thats a lot for rent in the homeless services but u got your own tiny room in that place
i didn't know hostel is places where homeless people use. I really didn't know that. Is it usually mostly for homeless people??
Loads of jobs in Ireland ,why did you not work .Minimum wage is around 10 euro an hour .
@@anthonydowling3356 loads of jobs in ireland 🤣 if every body had a job social welfare would not exizist 🤣Does everbody u know have a job🤣💯⚒
The certified dont get work ⚒💯
@@aaronfinnegan5035 They go on welfare for one or two months .Not their whole life .FFS
His shirts are great! Let's like and share his FB page to spread the word and help him out!
Warms my heart the loyalty of a good women. Actually everytime I hear this story they left after the person was down on their luck 🙄shallow fucking people
Adrian seems a good guy
GOD bless!!!
He seems ambitious. I hope he's off streets. He deserves better life. All people deserve a bed to sleep and to be safe. Man modernised this planet so live up to it government and live up to the big plan!!!
Stephanie In the wild He is off the streets, married, and has his own clothing brand, Akat Clothing🙏🏽 i got this info from a recent video on this channel😭
@@valtroude oh really,how amazing !he is so handsome.
@@valtroude you made my world complete

umbrellas in the UK are called brollys
Hi everyone this is my brother and to let people know that he died 18months ago age 47 of stomach cancer 😢
Sharp guy alright. Whenever I have an on the spot conversation I can't even get past the first sentence...lol...
i live in london and trust me....rent is too expensive and landlords are terrible, i have been in london now for 25 years and during that time i have been turfed out of 3 different houses due to landlord selling up.. section 21....and am always near homeless...
the only real way is to get a council flat or housing association...if you go private you are always near homelessness....
council is too hard to get , so is housing assoication..i was on council list for 15 years in hammersmith, and when the crunch came ..they only helped me get deposit for a PRIVATE RENTAL.....where after 4 years landlord sold up again..putting me back out on my ass.
you have to make big money to live in london and not have to worry..either that or have a family who bought their houses in 1970s or 1980s
I lived in London for 20 plus years .Wasted years .There are much better places in the UK .
Prayers...
Walk the waters edge till you find a boat and life begins again😎
🙏🏾💜
That's immediately what I thought.
🙏
I wish the man well but I think there’s something missing in the story. Seems quite flippant about ‘lost my job’ ‘lost my flat’ ‘lost my girl’.
All in one go? No family, friends, savings, interviews for another job?
An English speaking person will always get a job in London, it’s easy, you can always work in fast food if it’s really bad.
I wish the man well, I hope he gets off the streets, if he even is on in them.
Accommodation ,even one small room is super expensive in London.That is the problem.
top guy!!
All these guys it's a consistent story; lost my job flat and partner; why the fuck is that you lose everything and then your partner bales too. Fucked up! You'd think that given he's probably the bread winner his partner would support him in his time of need. The way life is..
The One that's because deep down everyone is out for themselves and themselves only. This is how it's always been my friend
+Raw Tye Great comment, but i dont agree. Not true,but only in a sense that there are still people that will die fighting for you not even knowing you,just a helping hand in the right moment, when evil is lurking in the dark and you are helpless.......there are still many good people out there, they risk their lives while helping you. But what you said is also true for spiritless once who get together with those they don't love, they do it for safety, for financial gains or for other reasons, but never for love, and they aren't good friends in the first place, a kind to be avoided if possible.
Plenty of women who are not whores. But men tend to pick the whores. Good women stand by there men. My husband had nothing after the financial crisis but I stuck by him, we worked as a team both earning what we could and now have a big new house and plenty of money in the bank.
@@jocookham4810 Why do you need a big house ?
Solid lad
8 years might be a lil belated,ya doing better? I hope
Where is this man now?
Hope he gets a job and housing soon
Do you ?
He was a good life and now?
here to stop evryone saying first.
Lord Jesus Please send your angles to help these people.
What's this guys Facebook page called? I'd be interested in his art
it's in the video description, however he has't been active for the past 4 years
that's all you have to comment on this video???
iv started giving money to homeless now only like £2 or £3 though
Something is better then nothing my friend thank u for helping ❤❤❤
Arlo Jeffery every dollar really does help...
Please give them food and not money. I work In a similar field and I can tell you alot of these poor people are understandably addicted to drugs and all that money just goes to the dealers and not food for these lot. I appreciate you helping people though 👏.
Dude looks like Zac Effrons brother
A flat and a job doesn't seem like too much to ask.
you have to move from London to another town if he really wants to get back up London is not the place to be they won't house you if you wasn't born in London he doesn't have to be their go to Birmingham
One minute an area manager sniffing the charlie driving the nice car in the nice apartment with the nice girl, the next getting attacked by pissed twats whislt asleep on the cardboard.
Thats life .I can relate to it as i also lost everything .Am more secure now and am lucky health wise .Health is your Wealth .
really,,,,,,,,
He look handsome!
Where is he now? 2021
Its now 2024 dude.
1. Didn't he have a family? 2. I get that there was crisis in finance but why didn't he get just any job or more junior one through networking?
Ask him .
Looks like his right eye brow is permanently higher than his left.
Yes he is a bit of a wide boy .(chancer )
I wanna know u please
you mean his left is higher than right :p
Homie looks like yung lean
Is it easier to live on the streets of London than say NYC? Asking for a friend
Probably ,as the Winter is less severe there and there are charities who help out .
Hi, there may I have mark Facebook please thank you.
Adrian has a strong character- not many could take a fall in social standing as he has without going 'off there nut'- Adrian seems to understand it- and seems like he will get out from where he is- probably needs just one break or a bit of help to start off
look like yung lean
He seemed sound asf man 🙄
same and I'm, a girl
his smile can melted any women's heart 😂
hej
Yeah guy hello are homeless peaple UK ever like USA are homeless to.ever Canadian are homeless to that are people everywhere.homeled to.usa.1 UK.2 canadian.3 are everywhere.homeless peaple country.friendship
Good blagger.. I'll give him that :-))
IT'S illegal to beg?
In England, yes.
James Murphy wow Who made up that cruel law? That's incredible. They won't even allow the poor to beg as if being reduced to begging isn't cruel enough. Gee, GB now has a black eye in my view.
We have a lot of cruel people here. Very likely enacted by a Conservative government. I read English history and you'd think a law like this would be confined to the middle ages. I guess a lot of the cruelty from that bygone era is still very much alive and well.
James Murphy that's odd. I'm a staunch conservative, in a conservative state in the U.S. & We not only allow begging , we feed & house as many of the homeless as possible & conservative churches provide most of the free food & clothing. I noticed how you tried to hang that onto conservatives turning it political when it's liberal policies creating unrest & social decline. That huge public housing building that burned in the UK recently was full of "immigrants". They weren't homeless were they but your own people have no where to lay their heads.
cheeto fingers it's neo-CON policies as you know that are turning formerly first world countries into third world ones......as for the discredited liberals vs CONS strawman, nice try
He's cute he can stay in my hostel
Take me .I am free .
I want his number I a artist too he need american girl hope john helps him out I paint draw sing I think I got crush on him we can ger t shirt store together
Stop dreaming
I dare you to go go to India et al. Plenty of possibly English speaking homeless ppl there too. Seems you are only alternating between USA and London always. 🤭😳🥺
