Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my Justgiving page. I took part in CEO Sleepout Liverpool on 26th March. 

I gave up a night of comfort and slept rough at Goodison Park to raise vital funds for and awareness of poverty and homelessness in Merseyside.

As the Managing Director of Hitch Marketing Ltd, I managed to persuade the team to match fund any donations up to the value of £1000...which means our target is £2000 pretty please! This match fund is coming straight out of the Hitch Fund (a proportion of revenue set aside for social change projects linked to serving the most vulnerable in our community). So please give generously to help support vulnerable people in Merseyside.

On a personal note, I've worked with many projects over the years from detached homelessness work on the streets, to working as a relief worker in half way houses. I now also work for Safe Families for Children in the Mersey region, to help families in crisis. 

If you can't give money, please give your time. It's the biggest privilege in the world to help someone out of a crisis and on to reaching their real potential. 

Thank you.
