Since the age of 14, Mick has lived on and off the streets, drinking himself to oblivion to get to sleep at night.
Mick now has a home and has been sober for over a year. He is also spending time volunteering for Thames Reach.
Listen to Mick talk about why he slept rough, what it was like, and the "scariest experience" of his life that led him to seek a more settled lifestyle.
