I was introduced to Crawley Open House only a few months ago and was struck by the amazing team and great things they are doing. They serve the homeless and disadvantaged of Crawley and the surrounding areas and have done since 1994. They operate a 24 bed hostel, busy day centre, 3 move-on houses and a community outreach team.

I’ve had a last-minute opportunity to run for them and would love to raise a few pounds along the way; with your help we can make a few nights more comfortable for some less fortunate souls. Thank you so much in advance for helping me to help them.

As a UK registered charity (No. 1048919) they are part-funded by local government, but need to raise around £300,000 each year themselves to keep doing what they do at a time when demand for their services has rarely been greater. People find themselves homeless for all sorts of reasons – please help me raise funds for our local homelessness charity working 24/7 365 days a year with those much less fortunate than ourselves, in this often overlooked situation.
