8 Brave Astro troops are taking part in the savage obstacle course 'Tough Mudder', to raise money for Streets 2 Homes.

-
Streets2Homes supports homeless people, or those at risk of becoming homeless, by offering a day centre for individuals aged 18 and over. The charity offers essential support in finding accommodation, getting back into employment, opportunities to gain qualifications, as well as providing basic amenities such as hot meals, warm clothing and access to shower facilities. With a team of just three employees and around 20 volunteers, resources are spread thin on the ground and so the charity relies heavily on donations and support from the public and other local organisations.

Here's how your donations can make a direct impact:

£1 will buy a pair of pants

£5 a pack of socks

£10 will cover the costs of toiletries needed

£15 sleeping bag

£25 will purchase a tent for someone to at least have shelter if accommodation cannot be found.

£30 will buy a mobile phone so they can communicate with essential services 

£150 will purchase a starter pack with essential items for someone moving into accommodation from the street

£300 will buy food for a month to provide a hot a meal at the day centre for those who are homeless

£750 will pay the rent for 3 months for the day centre to continue opening

The Tough Mudder will most definitely be a challenge for the team but all in aid of a hugely worthwhile cause. The Astro Team will be extremely grateful for any donations you can make!!
