Ian Harrison had to leave his flat because he was being exploited by a gang of drug dealers. He is now back on the streets taking crack and heroin after spending more than 12 years clean.
3:44"Home sweet home" is written in felt pen on the walls, and fairy lights hang from the ceiling, but Ian Harrison's home is two-metre square of cardboard and pallets erected on the cold concrete underneath the Hammersmith flyover.
Mr Harrison says he did have a flat in Brent, but he couldn't go back there because he was being exploited by a gang of drug dealers in the block and it wasn't safe for him to return.
"There have been times when I've been sectioned, and I've just relapsed because there is nothing to catch you when you get out."The vicious cycle he described continued.At rock bottom he was sectioned again, and again any progress was undone when he ended up back on the streets after being discharged.He was begging outside Hammersmith station, but he'd been offered a place in emergency accommodation because of the severe winter cold.
