Young and homeless

Victoria Derbyshire | 10:01 UK time, Monday, 4 May 2009

This morning the story of 9 year old Melanie. She's from North Wales, she has a mum, a dad, two brothers and 1 sister -- and they are homeless (see entry below). Melanie's done a report for us on what it's like living in emergency accomodation. Her family is one of around 70 thousand in such accommodation in this country.

Listen to Melanie's guided tour of the shelter below:






Also this morning, Harriet Harman on why she definitely doesn't want to be leader of the Labour Party. And our music review today includes the latest single from Britney Spears (which is really good).
