Hi everyone,
First of all a massive thank you for your kind support and very generous sponsorship for the sleep out on Friday. It rained virtually all night but we had a plastic sheet for shelter and fortunately it wasn't too cold. Overall there was a great atmosphere and everyone was in high spirits and it was inspiring to meet the people who give up so much all year to help people get their lives back on track.
You all donated an enormous amount of money and the lady at the event was staggered when we showed her the amount. So again, a massive thank you and I'll try and post some more details of the work DENS do and how the money you gave will be been spent in the next few weeks.
Thanks again,
James and Dani
"Food, clothing, shelter and support – everyone deserves them, everyone needs them. People often ask if Dacorum really has a homelessness problem; sadly it does. Homeless people may not seem obvious – we don’t have a ‘cardboard city’ but there are men and women, young and old, sleeping rough – in cars, on friends’ floors, in derelict buildings or in hostels every night of the year." DENS website
So we're doing our bit and sleeping out on the 4th December to support DENS and raise money for our local charity. Any support is much appreciated. Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
So please dig deep and donate now.
Offline donations and many thanks to:
Simon Wing £10
Johnny £10
Keith £10
Paul and Debs £10
