A charity based in Bolton is helping young people who are homeless and since it began in 2009 has helped more 120 homeless teenagers.

Nightstay who receive referrals from Bolton Children's Services, can provide up to eight people accommodation for several nights in their town centre building. The young people are provided with meals, a place to sleep and can work towards qualifications.

The service is currently funded by Bolton Council with the young people paying £5 a week for food costs.
