Edinburgh Zoo sleep out · 22 October 2015

Fresh Start is an Edinburgh-based charity helping people who have been homeless set up their new home & settle in their community. We provide essential goods to set up a new tenancy and social & practical support to live independently & feel part of a community.

Story

On the evening of Thursday 24 September I will sleep overnight outside to raise funding and awareness of homelessness. This will be no ordinary sleep out as I will join a group of Chief Executives and the Lady Provost of Edinburgh to sleep overnight in the open in Edinburgh Zoo. The charities for which I am raising funds are Fresh Start, which is the Law Society of Scotland staff charity this year (50% of what I raise) and Four Square and the Rock Trust the charities selected by the other zoo sleepers (the other 50%). All three charities help people who are homeless or are being housed following homelessness. Please help them by helping me reach my fundraising goal. You can do so by donating via this site. All donations of whatever size, very gratefully received. Many thanks in anticipation
