SleepOut 2024

So far, my fundraising for the SleepOut 2024 could provide a safe space for a young person to sleep for:

Days

Months

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.

My Updates

SleepOut first timer

Tuesday 16th Jan
Over the course of the past 12 months I have been pleased to get to know the LandAid team. I have been volunteering some of my time to support them with, in particular, their Pro Bono Service.  I get a huge amount out of this in terms of a sense of achievement and an inner glow.

I have been aware of LandAid for years. As a chartered surveyor working in UK Real Estate they were a well known name.  However, I didn't really know what they did, nor, how desperate the situations had been for for the young people they have helped.

So, how could I refuse the invitation to try their annual SleepOut?!?

Donations (from anyone) or advice (from past participants) both gratefully received...

I enjoy sleeping outside and in particular wild camping in a bivvy.  This, I fear, will be something a little less easy - for one thing I won't be able to check the weather on the morning of the sleep, and postpone or find a b&b..!  

And that's the point of course.  I have a home and the luxury to choose.  Many young people out there don't.

Thank you to my Sponsors
