K’ Road Chronicles Season 2, Episode 1: Covid-19 and the Streets

We were due to start filming the second series of K Road Chronicles just as the first lockdown started. Clearly staying at home is a problem if you haven’t got a home! Picking up with Six as soon as the alert levels relaxed, we explore the unique problems Covid-19 posed for both the homeless community and those seeking to help them. Six’s work on the Chronicle and her role as street ‘Agony Aunt’ gives us a unique perspective on how the pandemic affected the street community. There are some amazing tales of kindness, real hardship and unexpected solutions… like managing to house a Whangārei man who had been living in his car with six dogs! Or a South Auckland drop-in centre who provided food for those who had been forgotten and were literally starving. Six also talks to the authorities involved in the massive effort to re-house the homeless in motels for lockdown. This is a community that already have health issues and the introduction of the virus to that community would have been catastrophic. And of course, throughout the various alert levels there is the constant pressure to bring out a new edition of Six’s newspaper and its update her website which became a vital source of information for those on the street. K’ Road Chronicles is produced by Magnetic Pictures for Stuff with the support of NZ On Air.
