No home.
Nowhere to go.
No one who needs me.
Kids are grown and have their own lives now.
Live in a caravan.
Have to keep moving.
I guess that is it.

Sorry to hear you are feeling lonely Peter.
If you don’t want to keep moving for a while, could you ask family or friends if you could park your caravan there? Have you applied for the public housing waitlist? I understand the Salvation Army can assist with housing in certain circumstances.
Could you arrange to catch up with your kids or other family members or friends? Engage in a hobby you enjoy (eg Mens Shed) or volunteer?
If you are feeling depressed, it might be good to book in with a GP to discuss. Medication can help some people feel better. You could also ask for a mental health plan if you think it could be good to have psychological support.
I hope you can access support soon. Wishing you all the best
