Campaign Story
Four young people England, who have experienced homelessness or having to had to leave their family homes as children, have the chance to represent their country at the Street Child Games.
The Games, which take place from 14 - 20 March in the heart of Rio, will welcome up to 60 young people from across the world who have been at risk of the streets - recognising some of the world's most marginalised young people as athletes and inviting those who have lived in the shadows to step into the spotlight in the Olympic city.
The Street Child Games aims to challenge perceptions of street children everywhere - for one week only, street children will take over the Copacabana Palace Hotel for a unique congress that gives them the chance to discuss and defend their rights.
