  • Elderly woman helps homeless (4:07)

It does not matter what the weather is like, Claire Adams-Adarmiak will always take to the street.

For the past year and a half, the 71 year old has been feeding the cities marginalised, the people who live on the street.

In a way, her Papatoetoe home becomes a street kitchen every Thursday night, as Claire makes sammies and soup.

The difference is though, she is on her own and she hand delivers.

Hannah Ockelford joined Claire for a day on the street.
