On 16th February my team will be sleeping in Freshney Place Car Park to raise vital funds for Harbour Place.
Harbour Place is a local Registered Charity supporting the homeless and those who are vulnerably housed. Their primary mission is to reduce and ultimately end rough sleeping on the streets of our community and to support those without a permanent home to find and sustain one.
In addition to the Night Shelter (which operates 365 nights of the year) they provide an Outreach Service working in the community with those living on or near the streets. Experienced support workers provide advice and advocacy services, assisting with housing applications, benefit issues, and signposting to health and harm reduction services.
Unfortunately, their services are in even greater demand than ever and our participation will help them make a difference to so many more people in our community.
All money raised from this event will go towards the work of Harbour Place and
