<p><strong>Thanks for taking the time to visit the Peter Vardy Fundraising JustGiving page.</strong></p> <p>Over 60,000 people presented themselves as homeless in Scotland last year. This was due to family problems, people losing jobs and not being able to afford their homes and drug, alcohol and gambling problems. <strong>Bethany</strong><strong> helps people sort out the problems that have made them homeless, and to stop them becoming homeless again.</strong></p> <p><strong>What is Bethany Big Sleepout?</strong></p> <p>Bethany&rsquo;s Big Sleepout is an organised charity event where people are sponsored to give up their beds for a night and sleep rough, raising money to help homeless and vulnerable people in Scotland.</p> <p>Last year, the Sleepout raised over &pound;20,000 to meet the needs of homeless and vulnerable people and with your help we <strong>hope this year&rsquo;s Sleepout will SMASH previous total!</strong></p> <p><em>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
