Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As part of a Civica team, on 6 October I will be sleeping out in London to help raise vital funds to support vulnerable children.

Shockingly, in the UK there are over 4 million children living in poverty. I think this number should be 0.

In the midst of this cost of living crisis, things are even harder for these children and the families who should be able to keep them safe and secure.

Tonight, many will go to sleep hungry. Some won't have a warm bed to climb into or even a safe space to wake up in.

Action for Children makes sure young people have the basics - warm clothes, hot meals, a proper bed. Together with active support. They can help them recover from abuse and neglect and put support in place for families to protect against it happening. And they can offer the right mental health support so young people can thrive.

Please help me to help provide a safe and happy childhood to vulnerable children when they most need it.

£50 could provide clothes and shoes for a child, or pay for gas and electricity for a family for a week.

£125 could provide a child with a bed.

£200 could provide a young person in emergency accommodation with breakfast, lunch, evening meals and toiletries for a fortnight.

Anything you are able to give will make a real difference to these children & I appreciate your support.

Thank you!
