  • Pictured: Mural of Arthur Williams, well known gentleman of the road in Edinburgh<br />
<br />
A well-known face in Leith, Arthur Williams, has been immortalised in a mural on a wall in , appropriately enough, Arthur’s Street  People experiencing and at risk of homelessness battle extremely difficult circumstances every day and never more so than during this Covid-19 pandemic. Research shows that if you’re rough sleeping in Scotland, your life expectancy is 47 years for a man and if you’re a woman, this decreases to 43 years.  Arthur’s family are well aware of how much of a miracle it is, that despite living on the streets of Leith for almost 30 years, he somehow managed to defy these odds. <br />
<br />
Next month Arthur will be 83 and is currently living with dignity and respect and being lovingly looked after in a care home. However, it took years of support and interventions to eventually get him to this point.  It also took years of tolerance, kindness and generosity from countless local businesses and good hearted Leith locals to keep him safe and alive for all those years sleeping rough. <br />
<br />
It is for this reason that the family of Arthur Williams, on his behalf, want to give something back to the community of Leith, to say thank you for the years of support from the everyday people and good Samaritans who showed him enormous kindness. It is hoped that this mural by the incredibly talented local artist ‘Shona Hardie’ (shonahardie.com) will honour his legacy and bring some much needed cheer, in these dark days, to the people of Leith and to all who see it. We are delighted and extremely honoured that Shona was willing to be involved and are touched at how committed she was to making this happen.<br />
<br />
In addition the family  are grateful to Vue Art (vueart.co.uk) who collaborated with Shona to incorporate the homeless/mental health signposting artwork on the utility box situated below the mural.  Thanks also go to Casa Amiga (casaamiga.co.uk) for granting permission to site the
