Matthew’s story is but one of the films the Hidden Voices have put together to raise awareness of the social problems in their area.
Following the posting of this video many have expressed their concerns not only the community’s website, but also on Twitter, facebook and YouTube.
The video was made by 26-year-old, Brad Powell, from Kenilworth who told the Coventry Telegraph:
“Before I did Matthew’s story I never really understood why homeless people were there. This is what drove me to look at homelessness for the first project.”
Currently Coventry’s Hidden Voices are on the look for other stories they can bring attention to. their latest post reads:
Our towns and cities are rich in diversity and accommodate people with different ideals, religious beliefs, social beliefs and view points. We all move forward but our understanding may be limited and misunderstanding can be rife.
