Young homeless couple's belongings in Fishergate, Preston

  • 2 years ago
Visitors to the high street were shocked at the sight of the young couple camped outside the empty BHS store in Fishergate, amid a jumble of clothes, bedding and overflowing shopping bags stuffed with their last possessions.

Preston City Council said efforts have been made to help the pair – including the provision of temporary accommodation – but they had sadly chosen not to accept the support offered to them.

The couple have now left the area and the pavement outside the vacant BHS store has been cleared.
