It sounds like Streetreach are doing a great job, who founded this group? I imagine it must be tough work at times, but ultimately rewarding. Is there a similar group aiming to help the guys that pay for prostitutes on a regular basis. These men sustain the industry and surely they need help too. I wonder about their self esteem when this is what they resort to for a sexual ‘relationship.’ Or do people consider it normal behaviour that doesnt damage the customer? Is it an addiction for these guys and if so, why isnt it treated that way?

Apologies for your comment not appearing sooner, Jack. For some reason it was held as spam.
Debbie Baker is the founder of Streetreach. She features in the video and submitted some content already posted here.
At present, I am not directly aware of any specific organisations that work with people who use prostitutes.
There are many debates about whether or not it is ‘normal’ behaviour.
