A STATE-of-the-art double-decker bus has hit the streets of Hampshire to give youngsters something to do.

The bus, kitted out with flat-screen computers, a cinema screen, a hot drinks area and a tuck shop, will be parked up around Totton on weekday evenings.

It's the brainchild of John Robin-son, a former member of Testwood Baptist Church, and it's now run by Southampton Christian charity Youth and Families Matter.

John said: "This is a great bus, and it's telling these kids they are special."

It took an army of volunteers more than a year, and donations totalling £12,000, to refurbish the £200 bus.
