100,000 Children Will Wake Up Homeless On Christmas Day

Postby annie » 02 Nov 2015, 09:21

More than 100,000 children will wake up homeless this Christmas Day across Britain - the equivalent of four children for every school in the country - according to estimates from Shelter.

The charity calculated that the number of homeless children has increased by almost 15,000 in the last year alone

It's disgraceful, they are housing migrants quick enough and leaving children homeless.

How is this allowed to happen?

I disparate of this country sometimes. How can children be suffering in 2015 anywhere in the world but in a country that is supposed to be a world leader it beggars belief.
