'Baby bin'

"Most people would not give a second glance to the metal hatch on a wall in Hillbrow Street in Johannesburg's tough Berea suburb.

But the "Door of Hope" is saving the lives of scores of unwanted babies.

Mothers can place their babies, usually newborn, inside and leave them anonymously to be found and cared for.

Once the infant is placed inside the "baby bin", sensors on the mattress set off an alarm."
