Aged 15, Lorna was living on the streets of Soho, trying to avoid abuse and rape whilst battling an addiction to heroin. She worked as an escort and a stripper, lost custody of her daughter, and relapsed multiple times. But, somehow, and unlike most of the people imprisoned by the streets, Lorna didn't just survive but she flew.

'I've dodged through these streets for a lifetime. I realise I have never stopped running since the day that I left the streets, never sat still, never found peace. But the process of unpicking my life means that, for the first time ever, I am actually facing what I have to do. It's time to tell my story.'

On any given night, tens of thousands of families and individuals across the UK are experiencing homelessness. One in three people sleeping rough have experienced violence and are nine times more likely to take their own life.
