The Homelessness Partnership have launched an urgent appeal to support families in temporary accommodation this festive period.
It is estimated that 158 children in Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole could spend this festive season in bed and breakfast hotels, because they have no place to call home.
Due to large numbers of families reaching out for help, the Homelessness Partnership BCP urges you to help in one of three ways: donate, let a property, volunteer.
