On 12th May - this Saturday - I will be flattening a cardboard box to take part in a sponsored 'sleep out' for Warrington-based homelessness charity, Room at the Inn, staying out all night.

They operate an emergency accommodation service for rough sleepers as well as donations of essential equipment that can enable people to survive rougher nights.

Because Room at the Inn is Barratt David Wilson North West's Charity of the Year, much of what is raised this year can be match-funded by Barratt Developments, making your £10 worth potentially £20 to people who need it.
