Homelessness is a prevalent issue in Nottingham which we at Catch 22 Nottingham are trying to reduce, to better the lives of people in the area who are less fortunate. Our aim is to raise money to create care packages for individuals sleeping rough, in order to provide them with basic essentials that they often do not have access to. To be able to achieve our goal we need the support of the local community through donations and attendance at our events.

Our objective is to both raise awareness and money for the homeless people in and around Nottingham. The benefactors of the money raised are the homeless and the charity Framework, a charity founded in Nottingham which aids and supports those in need around the city. For those sleeping rough, our aim is to create thoughtfully crafted care packages, containing the essentials they often lack including toiletries and brushes. As for Framework, the donations will be utilised in their street outreach programme, which involves sending people and trained nurses to check on the individuals living on the streets. Your support will make an enormous difference to the lives of people living in inadequate and abhorrent conditions and we will be immensely grateful for your support.

Our fundraising events include a sleep out, in which we will emulate the feeling of being homeless and thus be better equipped to raise money for them as well as it being a sponsored event. Other events are our 5-a-side football tournament and a sponsored static bike ride, in which we reflect on the number of homeless in Nottingham, 321, by riding the same number of miles amongst our team.
