A leading charity has described homelessness in Kent as "shocking" - as figures show nearly 5,000 people were without a permanent roof over their heads.

In the first three months of 2018, one in every 157 residents in Dartford were affected - with almost 700 people living in temporary accommodation.

Poppy Terry from Shelter says the reality is much worse.
