Encouragement

January 1st 1970

I have been an avid reader of your magazine for some time now, as I have been on the streets of London and around Britain for many, many years, in all seasons. Without help from you and the many charities, drop-ins, day centres etcetera, I - and I guess many others - would be well lost.

Your cartoons never fail to cheer me up and I read the articles regarding the police, outreach workers and the local borough councils with relish. After all, to be forewarned is to be forearmed! Anyway, please keep it going, no matter what.

Chrisovull, London

Thank you for taking the time to write - it was good for staff morale. And don't worry, we're not going anywhere, though we're opening editions in more cities in 2010.
