Ralf Little of TV's Royale Family travelled with Oxfam to Tanzania to ask homeless children in Singida what life on the streets is like for them.

Young people often find themselves living on the streets, for all sorts of reasons. Family breakdowns, domestic violence, and abuse are all common factors.

In Tanzania, as in many other poor countries, children often leave to escape the extreme poverty at home. These children end each day hungry, sleep rough and wake up knowing that the nightmare is about to start all over again.

Ralf visited the Kititimo Centre that provides street kids with an education, the only chance they might get. It is also somewhere where they can get meals and sleep safely at night. Find out more about Ralf's visit to Kititimo.

Read the street kids stories and find out how Oxfam is helping them.
