What about those who can't be at home this Christmas?

The charity "Step By Step" are rehousing struggling young people in 'host' homes.

Chris Dobage is a host for the Step By Step Programme:

"Right now I have four young people, three of them are unaccompanied asylum seekers - two from Eritrea, one from Vietnam.

"The essential reason for doing it all is to prepare them for the outside world. The idea is so they can move on to the next stage of their lives.

"To try and explain to them how they need to work in the outside world.

"It's teaching them mainly an attitude of mind...they have a feeling of being abandoned by society."
