Hello; thank you for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page, especially as you may well have given money to our sleep out for the Church Urban Fund before. This is the sixth year I’ve slept out to raise money for their work - and as in three months I shall be starting my ninth (yes, it is so) decade I think it may be the last. But whatever, homelessness doesn’t disappear. Specially after this dreadful year we know that more people than ever are falling out of the safe worlds most of us have always lived in, onto the streets, or whatever temporary place they can find. Homelessness is a hideous trap that anyone, but specially the vulnerable, can fall into, and once you are in it it’s hard to escape, without long term help, both material and psychological. And sleeping out brings home a little just how dreadful it is. Please help.
