lovely to see you use your platform to help the area, great cause i'll be looking more into this and donating what i can. thanks for your work to everyone there and cheers eddy for spreading awareness
Lloyd George at the end of WW1 said Britain should be a land of heroes, it seems to have gone horribly wrong The volunteers are doing a fantastic job they are incredibly good people, horoes and angels
Eddy, these sort of videos are what makes the channel one of the best for our region because you get right into the problems that our society is facing. Everyone who helps charity's such as the People's Kitchen or the Food Bank really deserve credit doesn't matter whether they volunteer on a daily basis or donate here and there everyone is doing there bit to help those around them. Keep this sort of content up Eddy 👊⚫⚪
Thanks for choosing to put any proceeds back into the charity, sends a great message to your viewers and hopefully sets a good precedent that those who are able to help should do their best to help :-)
Fantastic video Eddie what an amazing lady and her staff are. You don’t realise how many people are suffering on our own doorstep. We need to do more to help people instead of turning a blind eye. I’ll definitely be donating
The poor young lad who sits outside of greggs opposite central station every morning. He is a cracking yound man good conversation very polite and generally been giving a bad card. So I always buy him his favourite pasties and coffee
Some of the homeless in the city arent homeless at all , theyre part of a gang of schemers , ive witnessed this first hand , i gave a hand full of change ( around 6 quid) to a lad who had clean hands , as i was walkung away his " handler" approached him and told him ti now move to a diffrent area ive never given money to one since ,
@@karlwinter6843 I'm sorry but I cant bare to think that I have a nice happy no struggle life and walk past someone a induvidual who is down. I have a belly full of food so why shouldn't he we are all human.. Plus not being cheeky but I never said cash.
@@karlwinter6843 plus I know a young man who had a partner a house his life all in hand. And one day he woke up to find his partner had passed away. No drugs or alcohol just unfortunate. The poor soul is now homeless and very emotionally depressed. And hes no gang
Great work here Eddy, bringing awareness to these wonderful people and an organization that makes a difference to our fellow citizens. I'm in Canada and the need for these types of amazing charities unfortunately keeps growing. (Won't get too political here...but the people we elect to govern on either side are useless)
Great video highlighting the result of appalling treatment of the British public by consecutive Labour and Tory governments. We need a strong third party to eradicate the Labour and Tory "Eton mess" which has brought our once great country to its knees
I have massive respect for volunteers up and down our nation who are trying to help improve other people's life's but at the same time there's people out there that are quick to judge those less unfortunate than themselves but what they need to stop and think is what will this time tommorow, next week or next year look for them they could be in a similar situation themselves. We should all be singing off the same hymn sheet by helping each other regardless whether you are rich or poor we can all do our bit in some way shape or form. Keep the excellent content up Eddy and cheers for highlighting the real issues that effect the people of Tyneside 👊⚫⚪
So many shop lifters around 2 nights in a row I’ve seen greggs get robbed by youths and had my credit card stolen 3 weeks ago with over £200 stolen. real change needs to happen in Newcastle but this needs to come from government
I guess it would be easy to try and glamour the Tyneside Life but you really try and get right into the middle of it by highlighting the real problems that effect the region top class stuff mate and also credit needs to go to all of the volunteers who work tirelessly to do there best for our region 👊👍⚫⚪
That's a very interesting perspective to take, removing drugs as they enter and giving them back. Helps to remain impartial, when they leave it's their choice, but when they enter they want to give them their choice.
I used to go there years ago when I lived in the 3 small tower blocks on pit street long gone now like. But the peoples kitchen was a great place to go and get a hot meal. On a Thursday they used to get stuff from greggs to give out to ppl. The feed a friend thing for Christmas is great idea. Cracking vid eddy 👍🏻
Fantastic i have passed it but didnt know the extent of what they do. Yes we are old enough to remember the 70s personally dont fancy returning to those days thought we were passed that. Well done Eddie great work again.
Brilliant as always, I'll be contacting my sister to see about a donation, I'm not familiar with sending money thru the ether especially from here in Canada, we all have to help in these times. Hopefully everyone watching this gets on board. Fortunately it looks like we Canadians will not be hit as bad as the UK so I'll see what I can do, pity we couldn't have sent produce, just put our veg patch to rest and turnips, beans and tomatoes got hoyed out. Keep up the fabulous content.
Hello Eddie , me and my partner donate to this charity every year but after watching this video and finding it very informative but also sad my donation is being increased this year …….. Up the Toon and Up Newcastle Upon Tyne .
A reality checked but Heartwarming video. The selfless volunteers are a credit to the People's Kitchen. I'll will be donating. Thanks Eddy for highlighting 👏
The People's Kitchen first opened in 1985 that's 37 years ago and what has changed in that time? Apart from more and more people needing support from the wonderful volunteers it's very sad when you think about it.
This was where my old house was ! from 1959 - 1968. I lived on 51 Corporation Street across from what was S & N Brewery and went to St Marys Primary School on Oystershell lane. I remember The Gas man lighting the Street Gas Lamps at night !! Takes me back ..we didnt have much but it was enough 🙂 Great report as always Eddy
If you Newcastle council didn't all the students have all this accommodation In Newcastle and help people living and build properties for them would be a start in just bad in Gateshead as well there another selfish council
These homeless folk have in one way or another pressed there own self destruct buttons through drug and alcohol abuse, crime, chaotic lifestyles and domestic abuse. Not all but most. You can’t just put them in properties, they’ve had that and ended up in the street. The causes snd answers are deeply complex Andrew and shouldn’t be an excuse to take a swipe at student accommodation
It wasn't at the students it's a swipe at Newcastle and Gateshead council look at your video at the lass out mulligans on one of your videos on the streets thanks to council because of rent arrears half if not most of the country are in arrears not Suprised when council rents and rates are increasing constantly to feed the pockets of corrupt mps ,councillors etc etc
@@Andrew-ck1ob you’re too easily duped mate. As I said at the end, take everything with a pinch of salt. She had needle marks and clearly has drugs issues. The councils aren’t merely to blame mate. The causes are deeply complex.
I've tried to give my services to the peoples kitchen and it seems to be a closed shop I've sent applications on line and rang up and been told someone will contact you, I gave up in the end
Hi Eddie, do nufoundation have a team for the charity match? I would Love to get involved, the peoples kitchen helped me out when I was homeless at 15 and if it wasn't for them I would probably not be here! 👍
Hi mate, I don’t think the NUF have a team but I’ll pass your details onto Dave and maybe something can be sorted out. Can you email me at enquiries@tynesidelife.com
Oh one more thing . The last couple of years we have stopped sending xmas cards and the money saved we have donated to give the homeless a meal at Christmas. Will be doing it again.
Cards are annoying, they are nice to get, but they are really pointless and they get in the way and eventually clutter up your draws if you keep them for sentimental value. I can't stand special occasion cards. No thanks.
I wouldn’t give a penny to the old foreign guy that just sits there with a van shaking it at you when you walk past then shouts at you when you ignore him for being cheeky what a bloody cheek is rather give a English person a bit
I'm going to be brutally honest though. Look at their trainers to see who is a scam artist. There's a lot of scammers making more money pretending to be homeless on the streets.
@@TynesideLife i understand eddy. I've just seen a lot of scammers in town unfortunately and they do it for a career. The genuine people get a bad reputation off of them. I try to help as much as i can. I was actually warned by genuine homeless people of what to look out for.
@@jonwoodmass2849 I don’t think many people are fooled by those who are begging professionally. It should be noted though that charities like the Peoples kitchen also hand out brand new footwear and trainers to those who desperately need it. Plus other clothing and sleeping bags.
