Doorways: Sebastian’s father threw him out when he was just 17, so he went to the council for help. He thought that all he would have to do was fill out a form to get a council flat, but in reality he had to spend a difficult time in a mixed hostel and a houseshare. Sebastian shares his experiences and talks about his ambitions for the future.

Doorways: Holly left home at the age of 16 after a long period of stealing from her parents to fund a drug habit. She speaks frankly about her experiences in a “foyer” – supported housing for young people – and “sofa surfing” with her friends, and then back with her mother where she finally took the opportunity to turn her life around.
