My gardener and House-help are a couple, that lives on the street. I just employed the gardener about 2 months ago and her today.
They came to the house today, literally starving.
After tins of:-
Baked Beans
Tinned soup
Bully Beef
Spaggettie
and
2L Apple Juice
Coffee
and
Dress x 2
Tekkies
Jacket

They slept in my yard, in a big cardboard box, that I had a bench delivered in a week ago.

They now have employment with me, but is still without accommodation...

Thus:- They will live somehow...I'm trying to get them to move into a room or something close by...

From sopping wet, to freezing, to too hot, they need somewhere to stay urgently...
