Over 5,000 children in NI to spend Christmas homeless More than 5,000 children in Northern Ireland are set to spend this Christmas living in temporary accommodation

It should shock us that over 5,300 children are spending Christmas in temp accommodation in NI. Homelessness services will do their best to make this a happy time and ensure that no one goes without. However understandably what families want is a home of their own.
