YMCA Lincolnshire Sleep Easy 2020 · 6 March 2020

The Fine & Country Foundation has been created to help combat one of the largest social issues in the UK – homelessness. Last year, the Government estimated around 2,414 people sleep on the street on any one night across England, a rise of 36% over three years. Often the reasons for homelessness are misunderstood, with many blaming the individuals for poor life decisions and carelessness. The reality is: people become homeless for a whole range of complex and overlapping reasons that cannot be avoided, such as family breakdowns, mental or physical health problems or debts. Solving homelessness does not only involve putting a roof over people’s heads, it is also trying to tackle the root of the problem and asking the question: why did they became homeless in the first place? The Fine & Country Foundation is dedicated to bringing together all Fine & Country agents in over 300 locations worldwide to raise awareness of the causes of homelessness whilst supporting homeless charities.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

Becky, Adam, Ben and Alistair from Fine and Country Lincolnshire and Grantham are taking part in the YMCA Lincolnshire’s Sleep Easy event to raise awareness of homelessness and raise vital funds, 100% of which will go directly to this fantastic local charity. 

We will be spending a night on the street and whilst we know it's nothing like the reality of being homeless, it is an act of solidarity and a great way to raise money for a charity which provides direct-access emergency accommodation and specialist support for the most vulnerable in he City of Lincoln.  We have worked with the YMCA for over a year and the work they do is incredible – a truly life-saving and life changing charity.  

We would be so very grateful if you could help by making a donation – every penny will really help to make a difference.

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. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
