We filmed with Rob last week.
He says many members of the public feel that "homeless people are there by their own doing".
"There's not enough education," he tells us.
Jonathan has bumped into Rob again tonight. It was his birthday on Wednesday.
"I was sat in the rain in my camp trying to keep dry," he says.

One man in high-viz jacket wanders off into the night. "Thank you, have a lovely evening," he says.

More from the people we've been speaking to over the past week.
Rob says he had a breakdown before going off work sick.
