City's anti-homelessness charity has busiest ever month

An Exeter charity helping homeless young people says November was its busiest month ever.

Nightstop arranges short-term accommodation in people's homes for under-21s who might otherwise end up sleeping rough.

The charity says more and more young people are turning to it for help.. and this week it's launching a campaign to try and recruit more potential hosts who can offer someone in need a bed for a few nights.
Nightstop has chosen the Christmas period, because it's a time of year when people's thoughts are focused on the home and family.... creating sympathy for those who have neither.
