I am running the Brighton 10K (14/04/2019) and the Worthing 10K (02/06/2019) to raise money for #SleepSafe- celebrating 10 years of Sussex Nightstop!
I coordinate the young people's service for Sussex Nightstop and this is a pretty big personal challenge for me; marking 11 years since I was lucky enough to walk away from a pretty horrific plane crash. I am so thankful to be able to live a normal life following the trauma my body went through and I get to go to work each day and do something that I feel very passionate about. So please sponsor me to run 10K twice and help Sussex Nightstop reach their target!
With rates of homelessness on the increase, young people are particularly vulnerable to becoming homeless, especially when family breakdown is involved.
Fortunately, Sussex Nightstop and our team of volunteer hosts are here to help – offering their spare room on a night-by-night basis and giving a young person a safe space from which to resolve their housing problems, so they don’t risk spiralling into long-term homelessness or the dangers of rough sleeping.
Our #SleepSafe campaign is urging people to help alleviate the often-hidden problem of youth homelessness by supporting Sussex Nightstop’s work. We are aiming to raise £10,000 towards developing and delivering our services to young people including the recruitment and training of more volunteer hosts so Sussex Nightstop can ensure a safe bed is available every night of the week.
