So.. here's the plan....
I stay for one night at a London backpacker hostel/etc. I receive mail there I tell all my banks that is my new address then I emigrate Then all the mail that comes will be 'RETURN TO SENDER' by the youth hostel.. Also... what if I stayed in the UK.. but wanted to avoid those pesky debt collectors and baliffs? I could just use my youth hostel address. btw.. how do homeless people get mail? Not all of them are tramps, some of them are educated people... what do they do? |

Do homeless people not have anyone to send them mail? Not even the Benefits Agency? Warning: this will resemble a rant... I think maybe you should take a wander around your local big town and speak to some of the people you see huddled up in shop doorways. Ask them how much they really like it when it's pouring with rain. I suspect that most people would much prefer to have a decent roof over their heads, but it's all too easy to get into a downward spiral. You need a permanent address to get a job; you need a job to pay the rent. Where, then, do you start? It's all very well for us in our cosy houses and flats to tell people to get off their arses and find a job, but if someone can't find paid employment with qualifications and a nice cosy middle class mortgage what hope has someone without (apparently) anything going for them? -- To reply see 'from' in headers; lose the domain, and insert dots and @ where common sense dictates. |

Some often get letters from friends and family - delivered to maildrops such as shelters, vicarages, etc. Some homeless have even used the telephone to keep in contact. |

Vecht: helenvecht@zetnet.co.uk > Edgware. There are various definitions of homeless, which can include administrative, political, social, self-defined, other-defined, etc. Most homeless people can receive mail directed to a different address. This may be the address of a friend, organisation, etc. Homeless people can and do have bank accounts, jobs, cars, etc. You do not need a job to pay your rent - benefits can pay this. You do not need a mortgage to get a home - you can rent from private or social landlords. Most homeless hostels are not dormitory based. A lot of homelessness is not caused through poverty or lack of income, whether earned or through the benefits system (although this can be a contributory factor), but through issues such as mental (ill)health and substance mis-use.
