BEATRIZ, a student from Mexico who is studying at Hutton Grammar School, is looking for a new home.

She is currently still in a temporary home with no bed or bedroom and is desperate for more permanent accommodation.

She would really like to find a lively host family if possible. If we do not find her a home soon she may have to go home, cutting her stay very short and not achieving what she came here for.

Beatriz has just turned 18 this month and is very thoughtful and generous. She really wants to stay in the area and keep attending Hutton Grammar School.

In-STEP the organisation that brought her to England just need a family that is prepared to look after a student the way they would expect someone to look after their son or daughter, should they be abroad for a year.

Could you be that family? All you need is to be a loving family who would like to learn about other cultures and languages themselves, while offering a warm loving environment to this young lady.

Could you provide her with the loving home she needs?

If so please contact Malcolm or Sue on 01772- 626343, 07760287337 or email them at instep@zoom.co.uk. In-STEP provides a grant to host families, to help towards the cost of their food.
