On Friday 7 October I'm taking on the challenge of sleeping out to support vulnerable children across the UK. 

Right now, there are 3.9 million UK children in poverty. 

Home isn't the loving place its supposed to be. And with the cost of living crisis spiraling out of control, they're even more vulnerable. Tonight, children all over the UK will go to sleep hungry. Some of these children don't even have a warm bed to climb into and sleep on mattresses or just the floor.

 Action for Children make sure children have the basics - like warm clothes, hot meals and a proper bed. They offer the right mental health support, so children thrive. And provide protection and recovery to child victims of abuse and neglect.

Please help me raise vital funds to help a vulnerable child's dreams of a safe and happy childhood come true. £40 could pay for gas and electricity for a family for a week £50 could buy clothes and shoes for a child £100 could provide a child with a bed £200 could provide a family with a cooker 

Please please please support me in supporting them - and helping to provide some joy and basic support in these horribly challenging times
