SOME 135,000 children will be homeless this Christmas, according to research by the housing charity Shelter, which calculates that another child becomes homeless in Britain every eight minutes.
Official figures also show that the number of people sleeping on our streets has more than doubled since 2010 to almost 5,000 people on any given night.
