Four-legged friends
Not all hostels accept dogs, so the Dogs Trust has been working alongside homeless charities Broadway and St Mungo's to develop pet friendly policies for homeless services. Clare Kivlehan, Dogs Trust outreach manager, explains the importance of pets to homeless people: "The stability, love, responsibility and companionship brought about from looking after a pet is essential for their eventual resettlement and a life of independence."
