Advantages: Good read for the price, helps a homeless person

Disadvantages: none

Big Issue Vendors often come in for some criticism. People frequently look the other way and pretend they don't see them. Why the stigma?

Official vendors wear a badge to verify their authenticity and they are monitored to make sure their earnings aren't going on drink or drugs. They are homeless people trying to do something to help themselves. At just £1 the Big Issue is good value as a paper. There's plenty of reading in it.

So next time you see a Big Issue Vendor buy a copy. Its only £1 and you will be getting something decent to read and helping someone else out!
