Hugh Dennis reports on how your donations to last year's Radio 4 Christmas Appeal with St Martin-in-the-Fields have helped change the lives of people who are experiencing, or who are at risk of, homelessness. He meets Carla, who's been supported by The Connection Day Centre in central London and is now off the streets and living in a hostel. In Edinburgh, Elvira, who has been supported by a new in-house psychologist at her hostel, supported by your donations.
