As the dark nights drawn in and the weather begins to turn frosty, most of us have the privilege of getting cosy in our homes with the central heating on. Unfortunately this isn't the case for some.

Homelessness charity Crisis reports that 8096 people were recorded as sleeping rough in London during 2015/16. The sad truth is this figure is on the rise and has doubled in the last year.

As part of #Moat50for50 we are supporting two homeless charities; Porchlight and Centrepoint. To help us along to our £50,000 target and to raise awareness for these two charities in particular we are organising our very own Moat sponsored Sleepout.

It will take place on Friday 20 January 2017 from 6pm, ending at 6am on Saturday morning in our head office car park. Please get donating for these worthy causes and to help us put an end to housing need.
