Last year, I arranged a Christmas day breakfast for the homeless community and planned to feed around 30 people. I ended up catering for approximately 170. This year I want to go bigger and better... I plan on making a 2 course Christmas lunch for approximately 300 marginalised and socially excluded/isolated families of Merseyside and the surrounding areas. I also aim to provide a selection box to any children who attend and a small bag of essentials for any members of our homeless community.

I have experienced homelessness first hand when, having spent the majority of my childhood in care homes, I found myself on the streets, aged just 16 years old. I now work tirelessly with the homeless community and marginalised/excluded/isolated families.

This cannot be done without your help. 100% of the money received by myself will go towards the funding of this massive event.

Let's pull together and make this Christmas one for everybody to remember and be proud of!
