Story

Homelessness is a plight that can happen to anyone. 

On the 25th November some of us will spend a night sleeping-out in cardboard boxes to raise awareness and money to provide a winter shelter to take rough sleepers off the streets in the coldest winter months. 

Over the last few years the London and Slough Run has provided a winter shelter in Slough from early January through to the end of March, with the help of many volunteers and local amenities. 

The shelter gives rough sleepers in Slough a warm dinner and breakfast together with providing a safe, warm, dry place to spend the night during the coldest of months.

It would be fantastic if you can spare £5 to help provide food or £15 to pay for the cost of one rough sleeper to spend the night in the Shelter.

Thank-you.

About the charity

We started in the mid 1980's and provide soup runs for the homeless and disadvantaged in London and Slough. In 2014 we started a winter night shelter in Slough. We began a food share program in 2020 collecting from supermarkets and distributing to a number of local Charities every day.
