How a cafe chain is now offering homes to the homeless
Jon Douglas reports on Social Bite - a business which runs a chain of cafes in Scotland, feeding homeless people for free and giving them jobs. After being up and running for five years - it's now providing homes for them too by getting a village built in Edinburgh. It's a project which has raised lots of money for good causes and attracted A-list celebrities including George Clooney. We'll hear from one of the company's founders, who at the age of just 30 is about to get an MBE in recognition of what he's achieved.
