Fundraising for Fine & Country Foundation

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am taking part in a muddy obstacle race on 16th September to raise money for Centrepoint which works with the End Youth Homelessness Campaign. I am doing this because as an estate agent I get the opportunity to meet a huge variety of people looking for different properties on a daily basis. Whether this is for lettings or sales, our clients are all fortunate to be able to choose what property they live in, whereas a percentage of 16-25 year olds will not have a roof over their heads at all.

This strikes me as very unfair, especially as these are vulnerable people who are just starting out in life and missing the opportunity to develop themselves further as they simply do not have a place to call home.

I have never run a marathon or done an obstacle race before but having done other types of charity work I know that it is 100% rewarding and extremely worthwhile.

The Fine & Country Foundation has been created to help combat one of the largest social issues in the UK – homelessness. Last year, the Government estimated around 2,414 people sleep on the street on any one night across England, a rise of 36% over three years. Often the reasons for homelessness are misunderstood, with many blaming the individuals for poor life decisions and carelessness. The reality is: people become homeless for a whole range of complex and overlapping reasons that cannot be avoided, such as family breakdowns, mental or physical health problems or debts. Solving homelessness does not only involve putting a roof over people’s heads, it is also trying to tackle the root of the problem and asking the question: why did they became homeless in the first place? The Fine & Country Foundation is dedicated to bringing together all Fine & Country agents in over 300 locations worldwide to raise awareness of the causes of homelessness whilst supporting homeless charities.
