I am proud to say that I have worked for the Society for nearly 12 years and during that time, I have learned so much and been inspired by so many homeless individuals that I have been fortunate enough to have met.
I have participated in a number of smaller sleep out events that we have organised over the years and can honestly say that it makes for a very uncomfortable night. However, it is all done to raise awareness and hopefully some much needed funds too! At least we can return to our warm homes, showers and comfy beds afterwards, or head off to work and truly understand just how tough it must be to try and function day to day with no sleep.
This event at Eden last year was fantastic! There was a lovely warm and inclusive atmosphere and an enjoyable evening had by all. However, there is a serious side to this event - with all the austerity measures and so many more people in need year on year, we really need to raise as much money as possible to ensure we maintain our services for those that will be enduring nights on our streets, in woodland, in derelict buildings struggling to keep warm, struggling to keep dry and just needing somewhere they can go to feel safe and welcome.
Please, please sponsor me and help me reach my target. Homelessness in indiscriminate - it could happen to me, it could happen to you! No one is immune to this. If there is one thing I have learned over the years, it is very easy for ANYONE to become homeless.
Thank you for your support! xx
