Crowned as the WORST High Street in Britain, one tabloid compared it to a WARZONE! Welcome to Yeovil, I was shocked at the levels of social deprivation, the amount of abandoned empty shops and overall poverty within this UK town! #britain #uk #poverty #crime #antisocialbehaviour #england #reallife #highstreet #somerset #streetinterview #onthestreet #depression This deprived town on the Somerset / Dorset Border statistically is by far one of the poorest in the region, the 2nd highest crime rate being a hub for Violence & Anti-Social Behaviour and now holds the crown for “The Worst High Street in Britain“. I was seriously shocked to see the state of disrepair and desperation that Yeovil finds itself in. Nearly every shop is closed and boarded up! I have never been anywhere like this in the UK! Hearing from the locals in the street interviews within the vlog was very sad, especially the elderly ladies discussing their concerns for the future with the closure of the bus route from Shepton Mallet - Yeovil, which will leave them stranded! Yeovil for decades has suffered from a serious lack of investment & support into the local infrastructure and people, leaving this once thriving town a shell of its former self! With a lack of jobs and oppourtunity for the youth and a town centre that is decaying and left to Rot... This is Broken Britain at its finest, the Death of the British High Street Before your eyes! See the Tabloid article here: Another Headline: A quick Google search of Yeovil High Street will inundate you with negative articles, take your pick! There is no denying Yeovil is one of the most deprived places in the UK, but what is life like for the locals left behind? Join me to find out....
