Sleep Out Surrey
Campaign by Amber (RCN 1051388)
Amber Foundation are asking you to spend one night outside not to replicate sleeping rough, but to give you an idea into the harsh realities faced by a growing number of young people. Together, let's raise £6,844 for a bed space at Farm Place.

Story

Young people who have experienced childhood trauma, or escaped domestic violence, too often become homeless. Sleeping on sofas or in hostels, they struggle to find work with devastating effect on their self-confidence and mental health. Its a vicious spiral thats hard to break. Thats where Amber comes in. We provide a temporary home and a programme of support that helps young people transform their lives for good. 77% move on from Amber into independent housing, with a job or back into education. With 93p in every £1 raised going on our frontline work, your support will make an enormous difference. We are aiming to raise enough from Sleep Out Surrey to fund a bed space at Farm Place in Ockley. Thank you for your support.
