ANYONE CAN BECOME HOMELESS!
CORNWALL CURRENTLY HAS THE FIFTH HIGHEST NUMBER OF ROUGH SLEEPERS IN THE COUNTRY!
I am proud to say that I have worked for the Society for nearly 13 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.
This event at Eden last year was fantastic! There was a lovely warm and inclusive atmosphere and an enjoyable evening had by all. This year promises to be another great event and I am looking forward to being a part of it again. It is a great opportunity to raise awareness and much needed funds.
There is now more need that ever. Rough sleeping is up by 30% nationally in the last year alone and by over 41% in the southwest. 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.
