Carina Sörensen is positive about the ban on begging and believes that it has made a difference in the city.

- Since I feel sorry for those who beg, I think it is good that they are not allowed to sit outside, and maybe can find another way to get money instead, she says.

Besmir Gashi, on the other hand, has never seen begging in Sölvesborg as a major problem.

- I understand that many can experience it as a bad thing.

But I myself do not think that anyone wants to sit out in the rain and beg for money if they did not have to do so, he says.
