60 years ago on Christmas Day, a baby boy was left abandoned on stranger's doorstep. Little Harvey Shackell lay in a cardboard box on a cold slab of concrete until he was found by the kind-hearted owner of that doorstep, Vera Wood, hours later on Boxing Day, 1960.
Harvey says: “I can’t believe this is where I was left. If I hadn’t been taken in, I would have frozen to death.”
His entire life has been full of questions about his birth family, some he has finally found the answers to. He has discovered that he has two sisters and 16 half-siblings.
