The weather this time of year is generally awful. Rough sleeping has increased 169% since 2010 and over 50% are between 18 - 24 years old. 

This event is raising much needed funds for the Clock Tower Sanctuary who support Brighton & Hove's young people experiencing homelessness. For all of the fundraisers it will likely not be an enjoyable night's sleep however for all of us it is just one night, then we can all go back to our nice warm homes and families. It is a very different story for anyone without a home so please show your support and help make a difference. 

From the Clock Tower Sanctuary:

The amazing young people we support are the best people to tell about what we do.I only started coming to the Clock Tower Sanctuary in 2021, but already its helped me turn my life around. When I arrived here I was on the streets, using drugs and alcohol, and immediately they helped me get into and pay for emergency accommodation where I felt safe. Until that point, Id never had an organisation care so much about my safety that they literally did something straight away. With the help of my case-worker, Ive gone from emergency accommodation into a more permanent supported accommodation and am now waiting to move into independent social housing. With Clock Tower, I finally feel like Im not fighting for everything on my own.
