The selected images span over a period of seven months when I worked closely with St George's Crypt Homeless Shelter in Leeds. I have created personal portraits of a number of individuals who have, or who still sleep rough and now receive help and friendship from the shelter. Working closely with these individuals has had an effect on me as a person. The people I met were honest and openly discussed the troubles that they have faced. At times I felt powerless as I was unable to directly help these people but my role was to document and I hope this is what I achieved.
