Homeless Expats In Benidorm 🇬🇧🇪🇸 

Glad you got sorted pal l was the same stay safe brother ❤❤

Great job mate keep it up, onwards and upwards

Good on you Brother ❤🙏❤💪

Very well done. It's not easy but you're sounding like you have everything on track. Well done and all the very best for your future.

Glad to hear that

maybe you can try to track him down via this guy ? just to let him know that you care ,and you think about him , that would likely mean so much to him , if hes still alive hopefully .

@@user-en4mz1gj1e TBH not a bad idea sure he would know without a doubt 👍

@@user-en4mz1gj1e She wont do that will be to much effort for her

I lived in benidorm and i remember a fantastic homeless guy from sheffield his name was john never knew his second name but he was a brilliant helpful guy possably the same guy

I was that guy.

True hero

that was before I watched the rest of it and saw the charred remains of matey's place. Regarding the money versus food thing, just give ppl some of your time if you're not sure. 5 - 10 minutes chatting can go a long way for someone who is ignored by 9 out of 10 ppl. If they beg you for money and you don't want to give it, then walk away, at least you gave them the time of day. @@WendallExplores

Me too

Deffo for me too, a real hero

Everyone is conflicted about something. He's just recognising his own behaviour when he was an addict, but being compassionate towards others @@anoldewoman

We need many more x Jonny

better… these scumbags are thieves.. lazy thieves.. they dont want to work and our hero is giving them everything! para mi es malo!

What the world would be like with more of them...

@@WendallExploresbro cld you drop an email ,cheers

We can all be like Johnny. First step, even a small one, can be taken tomorrow morning.

Pure kindness from Jonny mate

Thats why they're politicians, they dont want to help real people

Yes I agree. I think all politicians should have mandatory experience of helping the homeless people for a year before they can sit in a nice office. Then policies, funding and accomodation may improve to get people in work and off their addicrions.

Jonny rules 🤘

Johnny is a Benidorm Saint 😇

Jonny true hero

Well said

Truly i would never look down on anybody as life can turn upside down for all of us and i am always conscious of the needs of others. To.😣🙄😪😯

It's not just Benidorm it's in every city in the world .

There by the grace of God

Hopefully those typical brits who blame everything on immigrants will take your advice and not judge every immigrant.

I live in East Kilbride, my son gave me a couple of hundred pound.. i asked if i could spend it on buying backpacks & filling with things for the homeless.. he said yes of course & gave me more money, but i gave him the extra back and said I'm a smart shopper. Well, me & my mate went and filled the back packs with essentials bit also things like a writing pad & pen, groundsheet, socks, hat, gloves, snacks, baby wipes all kinds of stuff. We handed them out in Glasgow. We had a couple of pound coins left so gave it out in a shared way couple of quid each. 1 man had a dog so my mate ran back to the car & got all thr tins of dog food we bought which was about 6 only cheap stuff but the man was happy we had some for his dog. We had run out of change by now and i couldn't leave him with no money with him having the dog, i got him a tenner out the cashpont. He was so happy. I can't go by people on the streets, we always go to Prestwick and there's usually a foreign old guy there, i don't have any money now but usually can give a pound or two, he knows us now and nods his head, sometimes i dont have a quid on me but everytime im there i go in the big charity shop they sell clothing for a pound. So, i buy my clothes off that rail and get some change so i can give it to him. People buy him greggs as he usually sits outside there. Now, there are teams feeding the homeless in glasgow, also like a food bank system. It's not just the homeless queuing up! Lots of young families& working people. It's shocking to see at first, but i have found the community has pulled together, there's a site on Facebook, that gives away free household items anyone can post, i think its called shop for nothing. Anyway theres a few others similar. People are helping each other It's beautiful when you see it.

We do know that he's a big cuddly teddy bear (but dont tell him we said that!)

Mainstream TV is dead 💀

Cheers for that.

Very, very true 👍🏼 😢

there is no benefits in spain, people eat from bins. big familys have children because they get 2 grand per child

They still human being need home to

So who are they blame for this? Immigrants??

I thought you were gonna say you found your calling and you are going to help homeless people…..but you stopped a long way short of that 😂

@@user-ye8sy1or9q I'd help if I could , I have quite severe Autism and it hampers me and where I can go . I volunteer locally to myself and help animals. Dogs mainly. Paying tribute to jonny here

⁠@@user-ye8sy1or9qLol,that’s what I thought too😂

Amazing people in Beni Torunn ❤️

Awesome mate

Orwite Si, how u doin? added u on FB x

He is a saint

How much did you buy the tears for if don't mind me asking?

Well said.

Give them some food or clothing next time. That would be more useful.

This is very true. I've just bumped into a guy I help out here in Spain and he's just moved into an apartment. He was proper buzzing and told me how he appreciated my help, that of Project 4 All and others who've donated over the 3 years he's lived in a doorway and told me it's being spoken to like a normal human that meant the most to him. That people being kind and asking how he was, saved his life many times. I'm so happy for him. 2nd chance. 🥰

I've been in the life I know the people sat outside shops begging are on benefits have homes and tap up to buy drugs or alcohol.

@@Darth_BNT This is certainly not the case here in Spain . We can only claim income support for two years and that is only if you paid a sufficient amount into the system. One of the guys I wrote about on my page, worked in construction, paid in black money, (not his choice) shattered his ankle and got nothing. He is now in a wheelchair, living in a tent provided by this charity. In fact, many of the guys we support don't drink (some the occasional one, but to be honest, if this was my reality, Is be on whatever I could get) Many are very articulate, like the guys in this video and try to take care of themselves and are not off their heads! That's quite an ignorant statement to make, I'm aftaid.

You were ENABLING him/them! Why should they try to get their addictions under control, when there are well-meaning suckers willing to wait on them hand and foot?

@@nanwilder2853 14:15 addiction ain’t that simple. Addicts need proper help. But in order to receive it, they need to stay alive. So that’s what these “enablers” are doing, just keeping them alive, one more day…hopefully.

Jonny is a hero

Thank you for your amazing comment, I will 100% be back soon to support the amazing work you all do in Benidorm ❤️

​@@WendallExploresHonestly, you did a great job. 🤗 Please come back in the Summer. It's beautiful. I also suggested you should visit Murcia. The situation was shocking there a few years ago. 😢

Appreciate that mate 🙏

True hero

Which society lol? Spain didn't ask them to come over and be homeless

Which society?

😔

At least its warm at nights in canaries

Qué vergüenza! No deberían quedarse así sobretodo después del Brexit, ahora son clandestinos como los africanos

I will be in Tenerife in May. If I see any homeless Brits I will personally offer them a flight home on the day I leave. I suspect none of them will take me up on that offer though, because they are content in their squalor and addiction but let's see...

They are not allowed to spend more than 90 days in Europe! Why don't they deport them?

Education DOES matter. The plutocrats are actively dumbing down society so WE CAN BE GOOD SERFS!!

I don’t know - it’s education that can protect people from this kind of suffering. One can never overrate it! A lot of the time kids are learning about empathy in school- sometimes more than their parents can offer.

Education is underrated. Education can include compassion and kindness. Most youth just watch netflix and play on their mobiles rather than read.

Bless the project4all guys, heroes

Or have iptv

or tv license​@@deanofivetimes

Or come on dinghy

They could easily get a cheap one way flight if they wanted to. They choose to stay therefore they choose homelessness.

who are those people ? -are they Spanish ? from the Island ?

There’s always someone that needs some kindness and help

Maybe people should find the relief for their suffering, in their own countries. I am quite sure Spain did not ask for English immigrants to become homeless, and stay indefinitely in Benidorm. Why isnt anyone actually helping these immigrants to get back home??? I am quite sure the embassy would help them with a one way ticket back home, where these people can find the help they need. We are a burden on Spain, when we go over there like this.

@me and the boys yes I m sure Spain didn't ask for them but it is no just UK people they are from all over the world people sometimes can't go back to there country of origin due to many reasons life isn't always easy we would like to think it is but unfortunately it ain't

He said he helps with repatriation

🙏🤘❤️

No doubt you help those in the UK too.
