On 12^th October I will be sleeping out overnight at the Kia Oval with 150 people from the business community.  I am taking part to help raise vitally needed funds for the Cardinal Hume Centre’s work tackling poverty and homelessness. Last year over 1,700 people came to the Centre looking for help, advice and support as times became tougher for them and their families.  While sleeping out for this one night does not compare to the reality for those people who face it day in and day out, the act of solidarity will hopefully help highlight the issue of poverty and raise funds for the Centre’s work. Please sponsor me and help send the message that homelessness and poverty should simply not exist in the modern world.

Thank you very much.
