Homeless can address city leaders
Homeless and vulnerable people have the chance to comment on the services they get at a meeting in Leicester.

The Speakout has been organised by the Christian Agape group at the Abbey Park Visitors Centre on 13 September.

Shelly Arthur, project manager, said people can put their views directly to decision makers.

She said: "For the first time this year service users are involved with planning the event which is a fantastic step forward."

She said the aim was for the comments to have an affect on future policy making.
