Story

<p>Help us save lives this winter. We (Andy &amp; Rachel) are going to sleep with other people for money - hopefully your money!&nbsp;</p> <p>Each year people die on the streets of Brighton &amp; Hove - FOR NO GOOD REASON - except that they don't have anywhere to live.&nbsp;</p> <p>We're going to&nbsp;take part in&nbsp;<strong>Off the Fence's Sponspored Sleep Out in Brighton on 10th December </strong>and&nbsp;find out what it's like to freeze on the streets, raising both awareness and funds to prevent some of those deaths.</p> <p>We want to raise &pound;1,000 to buy&nbsp;sleeping bags, clothes, food or hot drinks - life-saving essentials.</p> <p>We're going to face the cold as they do; the lucky ones who have a sleeping bag, that is. If we raise over &pound;1,000 Andy won't use the sleeping bag.</p> <p>If each one of our friends gives just &pound;10 we'll smash our target and make a difference in our community this winter. Thank you so much.</p> <p>If you can't donate but want to help - <a title="Join the Big Sleep Out" href="http://www.offthefence.org.uk/sleepout/">why not join the Sleep Out</a> and raise money too!</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
