Story
We are raising money to buy much needed supplies for the local homeless shelter in Grantham called Grantham Poverty Concern. Their registered Charity Number: 1060003.
We have committed to raising money to purchase 5 Sleeping Bags, 5 Tents and 100 Foil Blankets. The company we work for Paylinksolutions Ltd has agreed to match this amount.
With any extra money we will buy some supplies of gloves, socks and pet warmers.
Additionally we are trying to raise money to Sponsor a room/s for 1 Year for a young person who is homeless. This impact will be massive and literally change a young persons life having a room for 1 year. The charity this supports is CentrePoint.
All year this group of people have been working towards charitable efforts and we have done charitable initiatives that have raised over £7,000 for various charity's in 2018, please help by donating to our final charitable cause of the year!

5 years agoWow! Thanks to all the donations still coming in. We are on £970 to hoping we will hit the £1000 mark! With all the extra we have raised we are able to purchase so much more than we anticipated. We will keep you posted when we have finalized everything we have been able to purchase.

6 years agoWe have started buying supplies for Grantham Poverty Concern. We have purchased the agreed amount of Sleeping Bags, Pop up Tents and Foil Blankets. As a group we are working on what additional supplies to purchase. The worst part of the sleeping out was the hard floor and how uncomortable it was, so we are looking at getting some camp beds as well. We know we have plenty of money to buy a couple of rooms for a young homeless person for a year, this will actually completely change some homeless peoples lives for good.

6 years agoAnd a huge thank you to Becky Clough, Rosie Stewart, Emma and Nigel Skieth and Emma Taylor for all our warm goodies. We said we would only eat or drink if someone came along and donated it. It really does mean the world and comparing this to actually being homeless I can imagine a warm hot chocolate or tea can go a long way. It means the world 🌎 all xxx
