On 27th February 2015 I will be gathering up my courage, a duvet, some cardboard and plastic sheeting and a very alluring set of thermal underwear to take part in the Bristol Christian Action Network Sleep Out. This is an annual event in which around 80 hardy individuals such as myself sleep rough for one night in the winter to raise awareness of the plight of the homeless in Bristol, and raise funds for the various organisations which help these very vulnerable people who somehow find the strength of spirit to continue with an existence which to you and I would seem quite unbearable. I would be extremely grateful if you felt able to sponsor me for this event - no amount is too small!  My homeless friends and I thank you so much for your support.
