St Mungos - anti social behaviour

Hello everyone

I am writing to let you know that our local MP,Neil Coyle, is meeting with Southwark Council and St Mungos on the 5th September to discuss how to best reduce the continuing anti-social behaviour / noise in our area as a result of St Mungo residents

I would really appreciate it, if readers who might also have concerns / recommendations on how to solve, to contact Neil prior to the meeting

Neil's contact details are:

Hi Terry

Sorry that you're subject to excess noise and anti-social behaviour. I'm probably lucky not to have it directly on my doorstep.

I can't imagine I'd feel overtly social or appeasing of society norms if I were homeless, marginalised and ignored.

I don't have a magic answer by any means, but homelessness is an ever increasing issue in the UK, our cities especially, and St Mungo's and the like are offering a bit of relief to people who are struggling.

Of course voice your genuine issues, you should feel safe in your neighbourhood, but (nothing in your post suggested you want to do this) please don't push homelessness out of sight. People first, homeless second.

Hi
Can you describe the anti social behaviour please.
Thanks

Hi Terry, which site are you referring to here? I think they have a couple of locations in SE1?

This thread is about Great Guildford Street. There have been threads in the past where similar issues have been raised.

What exactly have these St Mungo residents done that is so anti-social?

Thank you Terry for informing us of this.
I shall email Neil.

Does this mean that if you are homeless your anti-social behavior should be tolerated by the community supporting you?

... even when your anti-social behavior threatens the service for those who are struggling and who really need support?

Interesting view.

Perhaps not, but if you have mental health issues (bit of a chicken and egg thing with the homeless as is substance abuse) then tolerated it must be.

That's not to say I am without sympathy, especially where children are concerned, but we have an afflicted person next door to us, he bothers us, but we TRY to understand, at least.

Have you experienced this behaviour yourself?
