Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
Over the past few weeks we have seen some extremely cold and unsafe weather. Now more than ever, the empahasis of homelessness is at the very forefront of our communities, nobody should be in this situation and we are committed to do everything we can to help combat and raise awareness of this issue. We are starting locally with our shelter in Rugby; Hope4, who do such an amazing job with the help of their amazing volunteers. Please help us in our quest to obliterate this issue - every penny will go a long way.
So this leads us on to the challenge.... On Friday 20th April, Sam Funnell & Claire Heritage will be sleeping in the open car park on Newbold Road in the hope of raising some much needed funds for Rugby's local homelessness charity; Hope4.
When you hear the word 'dream home', what do you think of? For some people, just one night off the streets would be a dream come true.
The Fine & Country Foundation has been set up to help tackle one of the largest social issues in the UK - homelessness.
Often the reasons for homelessness are misunderstood, with many blaming the individuals for poor life decisions and carelessness. The reality is: people become homeless for a whole range of complex and overlapping reasons that cannot be avoided, such as family breakdowns, mental or physical health problems or debts.
The Fine & Country Foundation is dedicated to combatting homelessness and supporting homeless charities.
Last year, the Government estimated around 2,414 people sleep on the street on any one night across England, a rise of 36% over three years. Please join us in helping to reduce this number.
