Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Boycott Your Bed is the main fundraising event of 2021 for our long term charity partner, Action for Children.  For those of you who don’t know the charity, it does great work supporting homeless and disadvantaged young people. It has been proven that this vulnerable group has been hardest hit during the pandemic and so our efforts this year are more important than ever.

This year I am going to sleep out overnight on the side of a cliff and am hoping this inspires people to to help me raise money for young people in desperate need. 

 Money fundraised will go towards:

1. Proving emergency food packages to young people in crises.

2. Buy a bed for a child who doesn't have a safe place to sleep.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
