For the fourth year running The Eden Project is hosting a Sleep Out event outside the Biomes and this year I am proud to have been tasked with Project Managing the event. I want to be able to contribute as much as I can to this event in order to help raise maximum awareness and funds to support some of the thousands of young people who experience homelessness in the UK every year, so not only am I working on putting the event together but I am fundraising for St Petroc's society too.
Eden will be one of a number of locations for the Sleep Out event taking place throughout the UK this November with the aim of raising over £1,000,000.
Sleep Out doesn’t aim to replicate homelessness, but it does show you some of the realities – the cold, the damp, the noise and the difficulty of carrying on your day with little sleep. It’s not easy – but we’ll tuck you in with a night of music, food and good company before bedtime.
The event helps to raise awareness of the issues around homelessness but also raises valuable funding and support for local grassroots organisations who are taking direct action to support homeless people to get back on their feet and turn their lives around.
Could you swap your bed for a sleeping bag and a cardboard mat for one night? sign up and join me edenproject.com/sleepout, cant face it? sponsor me instead :)
