Homelessness does not just happen in cities, it can happen anywhere. There are a few organisations locally that help and support homeless people. The Newtown Rotary Club have organised "The Big Rough Sleepout" to try and highlight homelessness and to raise funds for local organisation to further help homeless people. These include organisations providing temporary accommodation for the homeless as well as others who provide support and a safe environment for them to visit. There are local foodbanks who will also receive funds.
