The Gloucester Rugby Community Charity enhances people’s lives through sport, with a particular focus on those living with a perceived disadvantage. Working with Gloucester Rugby, the charity is a force for positive change for citizens of Gloucestershire and beyond, reaching people at key times in their lives to make a positive impact.

This event is to raise awareness of, and money for, homelessness.

We're in the 21st century, and yet there are people who don't have a roof over their heads. Personally, I really don't think that's good enough.

Spending an October night sleeping on the concrete floor of The Shed (one of the stands at Kingsholm) will, I imagine, be quite uncomfortable. But at least I'm only doing it for one night. Some people have no choice but to sleep on concrete every night, and I'd like to help do something about that.

By donating, you're helping too, and I very much appreciate that.
