Story

Harry (11) loves supporting me at work where he can and understands that unfortunately not all kids are as lucky as he is, which makes him quite sad.

He’s taking part in Backups Sleepout with his cousin Fred (10) to raise awareness and funds because he like us, believes no 16 year old should not be sleeping rough in Bolton.

Any donations towards our target would be really appreciated. It’s going to be a cold one so I’m really proud of him taking on this challenge.

Thank you x
