Children in misery
SIR – I will be thinking of the some 90,000 children who will wake up homeless in Britain this Christmas, equating to the three children for every school in the country warned of by housing charity Shelter warned on Sunday, November 2.
Launching its Christmas appeal, the charity said some children were forced to eat their meals off the floor because living space was so tight and said many suffer “severe emotional distress” as a result of staying in temporary accommodation.
