This is a very difficult topic. I had a lot of contact with the wonderful Hazel Econs, who did an enormous amount to help Jack - who is indeed a talented artist. Sadly, he let her down constantly, failed to turn up for planned meetings, lost mobile phones she had bought for him etc, and in the end was forced to give up on him. I secured the promise of an interview with the extremely co-operative Charlie (I've forgotten his surname!) who ran - probably still runs - PSAD, which he (Jack) never took up. Though to be fair, he had by then obtained accommodation in, I think, Southwark, and Putney was too far away. We cannot imagine what it must be like to be in that situation, but it is understandable that people will have reservations. |
