These are an incredibly sad set of images. Just the bare bones of a person’s life. I wonder what the story is behind the toy elephant. Terribly, terribly sad.

Very poignant, small worthless items that may mean everything.

Really sad and l wonder what happened to them all. Would also be interested to know those who sell the Big Issue whether they do eventually live a normal life again. We had one who sold it in Bromley for 10-15 yrs and then disappeared, like to think he had a happy ending!

sad for the poor souls with so little worldly goods – most have likely passed on now .. R.I.P.

So many small but clearly significant items hinting at previous lives. I find the presence of religious items particularly poignant….and an envelope….what treasured link to the past may that contain? In a world where most of us are surrounded by material goods of little sentimental value I find today’s post particularly thought provoking. Thankyou.
