Daniel Smith

26-year-old millionaire Daniel Smith has never given to charity. Up until now only work and making money have mattered to him. He left school at 15 to join his Dad's struggling small furniture company and has since turned it into a thriving business.

He made his first million when he was 22, but Daniel's focus on business has taken its toll. Last year he hit a 'brick wall' with stress and exhaustion, and had to take six weeks off to recover. Keen to reassess his own lifestyle and do something useful, Daniel is going undercover to help homeless people in central London, Britain's homeless capital.

Daniel lives just fifteen miles away in leafy Kent, but it's a far more sheltered life, working in the same firm and surrounded by a close-knit group of family and friends.

Now he'll be throwing himself into an alien environment away from home. While he's undercover for ten days Daniel will be living in a council block in Elephant and Castle.
