Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Bradford Nightstop offers free emergency accommodation in volunteers' homes to young people who find themselves homeless for any number of reasons ranging from domestic violence to unemployment.  I trained to become a host and was so impressed with how the organisation work.  The training and support they offer to volunteers is excellent and they provide toiletries, basic clothing and other essentials to young people who need it too.  All of this costs money.

Unfortunately due to my own personal circumstances I am not in a position to host.  I would love to be able to make a massive donation to the organisation but money is tight for me too.

So I decided to set myself a challenge.  I will go for the whole of January without drinking a drop of alcohol. I would love to be able to say that this is an easy challenge but, alas, alcohol has become quite a prevalent part of my life of late.  Your support will help me to go through with this and improve my health whilst helping this great charity.

We provide a warm safe place to stay for young homeless people of the Bradford district on a one night at a time basis, within the homes of volunteers. On over 9000 occasions we have offered a bed in one of our homes. It isn't posh, it isn't for long but it is safe and it is really appreciated.
