      With 12 days to go until the end of our fundraiser we are at £400. Thank you so much to the 21 that have donated. You know who you are and we are eternally grateful. As it says these donations will be spent wholely on sleeping bags and camping stoves/gas for the homeless. We get so many lovely donations of clothes and duvets and without all forms of support we could not be there to help those most in need. Thanks once again. Amber.
