YMCA Lincolnshire - Sleep Easy 2020
Sleep Easy returns for an 11th year to raise awareness of homelessness in Lincolnshire.
We (some of the team from Accommodation Services, University of Lincoln) are supporting this charity by sleeping rough for the night at the Cathedral in Lincoln, to help raise awareness and much needed funds to help the YMCA support those who need it the most.
As we work in accommodation we know how important having a place to call home and somewhere warm to sleep is. Since 2010, rough sleeping has increased across England by 169% and Public Health England predicts that this figure will keep rising over the next few years. Having a bed for the night should not be a luxury in 2020, it is something which everyone deserves.
Any donations are greatly received to help us meet our target and raise some money for a very worthy cause.
