Since April this year homeless people and activists in Manchester have been camped in various locations across the city to highlight the current homelessness crisis and provide a safe space for those sleeping rough.
Last month homeless protesters gained international attention after they began squatting at the former Stock Exchange building in the city centre, with the purpose of using it as a temporary shelter for homeless people during the winter. Ex-footballers Gary Neville and Ryan Giggs, who own the building, made headlines when they told the occupants they could stay in the property until February next year and have since been supporting the group.
