      Yes, I work directly with people who are homeless all the time. I talk to them in hostels, and in charities, to try and understand what they need from health care, and what challenges they face. I also work alongside researchers who used to be homeless.

      The comic – it would be about homelessness, and trying to get people to think differently about it. People often blame the homelessness, and think being homeless is a ‘choice’ people have made. it isn’t really. People often have no choice. I want to try and get people to explore that idea.
