0:00.0 | No home. No address. No address. No bank account. No bank account. No job. No job. No home. No address. No bank account. No job. No bank account. No job. No home. It's time to break the vicious circle. We're working with charities like |

0:31.2 | The stars do not wait for you. We're often told throughout life by parents, teachers, and motivational speakers that life is what we make it, |
