Homeless young people, unable to find beds in emergency
hostels, are being given bus tickets to allow them to sleep on London’s night
buses as the number of people sleeping rough in the capital soars, a leading

central London that tries to find emergency accommodation for vulnerable young
people in crisis situations, said staff distributed bus tickets on a regular
basis, and gave young people details about the best routes looping around the
capital through the night, so they could have a safe place to sleep. Read more
