Ansvar Insurance's Managing Director, Sarah Cox and Head of Operations, Kelly Barter will be taking part in this years Off The Fence, Annual Big Sleep Out to make a real difference in the fight against homelessness!
The number of individuals forced onto the streets of Brighton & Hove has skyrocketed by a staggering 155% in recent years, with an average of 16 new people becoming homeless each month. The human cost of this crisis is immeasurable, and urgent action is needed to address the root causes and provide the support these vulnerable people desperately need.
"I am thrilled to get the opportunity to raise awareness of the impact of homelessness in our local city; 16 new people become homeless in Brighton and Hove every month, and the problem has increased by 155% in recent years. It is a small sacrifice to give up my warm bed for one night, to support the cause and I hope you can support us too". - Sarah Cox
"Everyone needs a safe home to thrive. Homelessness can be extremely isolating for those individuals impacted, it also has negative effects on their relationships and health. I am taking on this challenge to help raise vital funds for Off the Fence to provide services to those impacted by homelessness in Brighton. Please donate if you can". - Kelly Barter
Join Sarah and Kelly at Off The Fence’s Big Sleep Out on the South Lawn outside St Peter’s Church on Friday, November 8th from 5 pm, when they will be sleeping out for one night in a busy part of central Brighton to raise money to address this crisis in our midst.
The money raised will help to fund the Antifreeze Homeless outreach at Off the Fence to give people the support they need to get off the streets for good.
