A charity in Norwich is urging those going out partying over the festive period to plan ahead and stick together.

The SOS Bus will continue to be on Prince of Wales Road this month, after becoming an independent group last year.

"Plan your trip home before you leave"

Belinda Buxton is their operations manager:

"We want people to enjoy themselves definitely, but plan what your night is going to look like ahead of time and always do your best to stick together.

"So plan your trip home before you leave and make sure you have a plan B, if things do go wrong.

"We are totally volunteer-led and we survive donations and grants. So, funding is always a problem and we are constantly looking for new sources of sponsors for the bus.

"That all being said, we're doing very well at the moment and are looking forward to celebrating our 25th anniversary next year.
