Heatwave Hits Big Issue Vendors | UK News

Heatwaves are hitting the UK hard — and so are Big Issue vendors, whose sales plummet by up to 30% in scorching weather. With temperatures soaring and people rushing for air conditioning, street vendors — many facing homelessness or financial hardship — see their income vanish as foot traffic dries up. Despite efforts by Big Issue to provide essentials like water and sunscreen, the extreme heat makes even basic survival a struggle. As this summer breaks records with its fifth heatwave already underway, these vendors are forced to cut hours, risking immediate financial loss. While we all feel the burn, let’s not forget those on the streets battling the heat to make ends meet — hoping cooler days bring back both comfort and cash.
