A man has spoken about how his successful life hit rock bottom which resulted in him living on the streets in a tent.
Simon lost his career as a plumbing and heating engineer as well as his two-bedroom home after being introduced to a drug known as Monkey Dust.
The 42-year-old, from Stoke, where the drug is commonly associated with, was living a good life just a couple of years ago. Now, living in a tent and still taking the drug every day, Simon has asked the government for help.
