Event: BYPHS Charity Sleep Out 2017, on 21 April 2017
The purpose of the event is to raise money and awareness for homeless young people. For our volunteers who are sleeping we are not attempting to match any sense of danger of real rough sleeping.

Story

I will be sleeping outside overnight on the 21 April 2017 from 7pm-7am rather than in my nice comfy bed at home with heating and all luxuries . Knowing my luck it will probably rain all night or snow and be very cold ! But its just for one night! Just imagine all the homeless who do this daily . 

I am  doing this because I want to raise awareness of the large number of young homeless people on the streets of Bolton. These youngsters are homeless for many reasons, it could be violence at home, alcohol abuse and some because they have been thrown out of their parents' house and have nowhere to go.   A lot of the people I know live a privileged life and want for nothing. I am doing this to give back to the community . I am quite privileged to have all roof over my head so it time to give back.

Raising money for the great charity BYPHS who provide supported housing for 16-25 year old in Bolton who find themselves in difficulties.  Please make a donation to help these youngsters. Any donation however small would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
