I was homeless – now I show tourists the unseen side of Edinburgh

“If everybody was given a chance, they would probably flourish.”

Sonny used to be homeless – now he leads groups of tourists around the Edinburgh streets he once slept rough on.

He works with Invisible Cities, a social enterprise which trains people affected by homelessness to be walking guides of their own city.

On his tour, Sonny tells of his past struggle with homelessness and addiction and his journey towards securing housing and employment.
