This year more than any other we feel it’s important to help the homeless. We have chosen to support St Mungo's as we do every year. St Mungo's is a non religious charity set up in London in 1969 and is one of the largest providers of homeless outreach services in the country. The outreach teams go out each night to meet people sleeping rough and support them to move away from the streets.

Nearly 40,000 more people than last year are expected to spend this Christmas homeless, in a sign that England’s housing emergency is out of control, according to the charity Shelter.

The 14% increase in people spending the festive season in hotels, B&Bs and other temporary accommodation emerged from official figures and freedom of information requests.
