Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

Each year the Scouts, Young Leaders and Adults sleep rough in an effort to raise funds for the Hope Centre. We participated in 2021 but due to Covid it was all done virtually so we all slept somewhere strange (ie other than a bed) and we involved the younger sections, Beavers and Cubs, as well. We helped raise a huge amount of money and we want to do it again. The Scouts, Young Leaders and Adults will all sleep outdoors in homemade shelters on the 3rd February 2023 and simultaneously the Beavers and Cubs will be sofa surfing in their homes. We aim to use technology to link up all those participating to further our knowledge of homelessness. 

It is clearly going to be very cold, probably wet and quite a miserable night for those sleeping outdoor and it is likely to be an uncomfortable night for the sofa surfers so please donate as much as you can afford. 

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
