I will tell you what I do ,
I am a qualified paid Project support worker, dealing with the P.O.V.A, and P.O.V.C (Protection of Vulnerable Adults and children respectivley addressing problems at early intervention, meeting Young and Vulnerable People’s Housing and Support Needs, committed to Safeguarding and Promoting the Welfare of Children and Adults who have problems with substance abuse and misuse (drugs) and alcohol.
In doing this I work on the principles of 'Every Adult Matters'
• Improved physical and mental health
• Improved quality of life
• Improved independence, choice and control
In addition giving the emotional support in gaining there own self esteem, giving them power from dependent to independent living, Once I have assessed an individual support needs , I make referrals to the relevant agencies in enabling the service user in adjusting back into mainstream living, D.A.T. (drug and alcohol referral team) C.A.M.H.S. (Adult mental health service), however this does not work for all just most.
That is a quick thumbnail of what I do, .......
So dont ever question my annoyance and frustration of seeing vulnerable people being photographed just to be added to a website,... I hate exploitation and diservice.

If you want to help, give Mr Fleming a donation so he can take it to the 'Whitechapel Centre' in Liverpool so he can say this is on behalf of "Liverpool the way I see it"
