Default Homeless shelter \'going Japanese\'

Homeless shelter 'going Japanese'

Brighton's homeless are to get new Japanese-style accommodation through a pioneering scheme by the St Patrick's Night Shelter charity.

Celebrity Big Brother contestant Samuel Preston, donated £50,000 he earned from the show to the project.

The "crash pads" will be ready late 2007, and are being launched on St Patrick's Day.

Father Alan Sharpe said: "The sleeper pods will give the homeless control over their lives."
