A man who spent nine months sleeping on the streets has turned his life around
— and now delivers two tonnes of food to homeless people every week.
Mark Harvey has t up City Harvest and collects unud food from restaurants and supermarkets that is then given to tho in need.
The life as a business owner is a world away fromMark’ s previous之(前的 ) life, which saw his marriage break down after losing his job as a successful cameraman. The 51-year-old soon found himlf homeless and was forced to sleep on the streets for nine months in 2006.

When the rvice came to a stop 8 years later, Mark had built up the contacts he
语感启蒙needed to run his own business. He said:“ I was hiring a van and doing my own redistribution. I would ask some of the charities I dropped off at to make a small
donation (捐款 ) as well to cover some of the costs. ”
Slowly, Mark ’ s Acton-bad charity has grown from strength to strength and he
now has a board of directors and a team of 21 volunteers. The team collect food from Nando’ s, Morrisons, Marks & Spencer, and even Gourmet Burger Kitchen, and then
redistribute it to the Salvation Army, St Mungo ’ s, Ealing SoupmanyKitchen and
more charities, covering almost the whole of London.
Now City Harvest is on a money-raising drive so they can employ another driver,
and get food delivered to even more people.
