PEOPLE who have a spare room are being asked to help troubled Worcestershire teenagers.

A new scheme called Nightstop offers overnight accommodation to youngsters in an emergency situation. Nightstop co-ordinator Becky Whittall, said: “Anyone with a spare room and a genuine interest in assisting young people who are experiencing difficulties would make a good host. Prior experience is not needed as training will be given.”
