Story



On Friday 3rd February 2023 we will join the The BIG Sleep at Pentillie Castle by sleeping rough for one night like those who are homeless. For us, it will just one night, and in the morning we can return to our warm homes and comfortable beds.  I am an ambassador for the Plymouth Home for Veterans, which not only provides a home but support to help veterans back to independent living.  We are also supporting a self-build project in Plymouth for the development of 12 self-contained affordable rental properties with our first veteran already having moved in.  

I know it may not be possible but please donate as much as you can to end homelessness for veteans, all monies raised will go directly to operating costs of the house.
