nick's nuclear adventure · 16 September 2017

The Fine & Country Foundation has been created to help combat one of the largest social issues in the UK – homelessness. Last year, the Government estimated around 2,414 people sleep on the street on any one night across England, a rise of 36% over three years. Often the reasons for homelessness are misunderstood, with many blaming the individuals for poor life decisions and carelessness. The reality is: people become homeless for a whole range of complex and overlapping reasons that cannot be avoided, such as family breakdowns, mental or physical health problems or debts. Solving homelessness does not only involve putting a roof over people’s heads, it is also trying to tackle the root of the problem and asking the question: why did they became homeless in the first place? The Fine & Country Foundation is dedicated to bringing together all Fine & Country agents in over 300 locations worldwide to raise awareness of the causes of homelessness whilst supporting homeless charities.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page..

On Saturday 16th September I will be taking on the Centrepoint Nuclear Blast to raise money for the End Youth Homelessness campaign. I have two hours to do as many laps as possible of the 5k obstacle course. It’s going to be muddy, embarrassing, exhausting and all for a fantastic cause!

I am supporting The Fine & Country Foundation which is partnered with End Youth Homelessness (EYH). EYH is a national campaign, formed of nine homeless charities across the country aimed at ending homelessness for 16-25 year olds. Centrepoint is the leading charity within this and has organised the Nuclear Blast event. The money donated will go to the Safe Nights Fund. Just £25 provides a homeless young person with the first steps to getting off the streets for good; a safe place to sleep, physical and mental health checks and education/ work support.

Please donate what you can.I really appreciate your support and shall let you all know how I got on (and just how many bones I broke!)
