Supporting charities that work to help homeless people is something we feel very passionate about. There is so much hidden poverty and homelessness in Cornwall so we are hoping to raise awareness and raise as much money as possible for St Petrocs society (we also have a page for Amber, another homeless charity for young people).
St Petrocs Society provide accommodation, support, advice, training and resettlement services to single homeless people in Cornwall, aiming to provide these services to people aged 16 - 65 years and for whom no provision is made within the community, either statutory or otherwise.

We will be spending a night out in the cold, sleeping on a cardboard mat with a sleeping bag! Only a night I hear you say, yes not nearly a true representation of what being homeless truly is but let us reassure you that spending one night without the comfort of home, loved ones and sleep really will be testing for us, as we are fortunate enough to have all of those comforts usually.
If you can please donate to this worthy cause - if only to get some joy on 19th November when you are warm and comfortable and you remember where we are and how cold and tired we will be.
Many thanks
Abi and Becci
