'Their dogs are a reason to live'
A Leicestershire homeless shelter wants more dogs to be let into hostels this winter, so more rough sleepers can get out of the cold.

One woman, who we're calling Jo, was given support at the Falcon Centre in Loughborough when she was homeless.
BBC Leicester reporter Kevin Ncube went to meet her to find out more.
