My effort to battle youth homelessness.

Fundraising for Every Youth
Throughout my career I've seen some of the most vulnerable people, including many many homeless, sleeping rough and at their lowest ebb. Somehow it's even worse when it's a youth, someone whose journey has barely begun but now finds themselves utterly lost.
I've been fortunate on occasion to have an opportunity to help in some small way, whether a stop and a chat, or something pleasant and warming to eat shared. Occasionally I'm aware that someone's had a win and managed to secure a route off the streets.Now I have an opportunity to help an organisation that can make a consistent and effective effort to help people off the streets, provide proven routes to support and show them well trodden paths to a safer life. Gives them a chance to get back on their feet and find a way forwards! And to do that, I have to haul my heavy body up to 1085m above sea level! It's been 16 years and a few stones since I last made the trip (and that time it was my third mountain in 24 hours). I'll be posting updates as I train to make the ascent - so if you wouldn't mind chucking a few quid at my endeavours, I would be grateful.
