On Thursday 7 March, I am taking part in the LandAid SleepOut to raise money to help support young people who are homeless.

In 2022/2023, nearly 136,000 young people approached their council as they were homeless or at risk of homelessness. 

The cost of living crisis has had an immense effect on all of us. This has been felt even more acutely by young people facing homelessness. Reports from the charities that LandAid support have mentioned that they're facing not only a homelessness crisis, but a mental health one too.

Young people facing homelessness need our support more than ever.

LandAid bring the property industry together to support charities delivering life-changing services for young people who are or have been homeless, or who are at risk of homelessness in the future.

Your donation will help ensure that young people are brought in from the cold this winter.

This is sadly an issue that only seems to be getting worse and once you are on the streets it is incredibly hard to come back. Charities such as Landaid do a huge amount in this area making sure people get the help they need. 

I will be sleeping rough on the streets for one night in an attempt to even start to understand what people are going, through but more importantly to raise awareness and hopefully some funds for those in need.  I would greatly appreciate anything you can spare for this cause. 

Sad fact of the day: 

In excess of 80% of rough sleepers are men, and the average life expectancy among those experiencing homelessness is 45.9 years for men and 41.6 years for females.
