Joint sleep-out fundraising event to help support the essential work of Homeless Action in Barnet and Together in Barnet.
Story
The Homeless Action in Barnet (HAB) Centre and the Together in Barnet (TiB) winter night shelter provide critical support to many of our boroughs homeless people. We do not pretend that the sleep-out will match the sense of danger, hunger and despair which rough sleepers face every day but it is a powerful way to raise money for the charities and to raise awareness of homelessness in all its forms.
Our mission is to work with vulnerable people so that they gain access to housing, health and other services in order to achieve dignity; to make their own effective choices; and to express themselves as fully independent members of society. HAB is a ‘Place of Change’ – enabling and facilitating practical change for individuals and promoting the needs of Homeless people within our society.
