“Young people also created some lovely cards to help spread some love this Christmas.

“I am so incredibly proud of the each young person and their enthusiasm by wanting to do something practical to support those in the community who find themselves affected by homelessness.

“It’s an issue close to all their hearts and a wonderful kind gesture. Well done everyone.”
