********  Wow - thanks folks ******

Told you we CAN make a difference ... and you have!

Sooo - we have hit our target (yay!!)... but lets not stop here folks - the people we are trying to help are (sadly) not going to disappear once we have done our week in the shelter - so keep it coming and it will go directly to Caring in Bristol to help with homelessness throughout the city and throughout the year...  

Big love to everyone who has contributed!!

Our Story 

We are the people of the village of Sherston in Wiltshire - and we have decided its time to stop making excuses and start making a difference!

So we are "taking over" the Caring 365 homeless shelter in Bristol for a week - and that means we are going to be the people on the front line who run it for a week, and, we are also (with your help?) going to pay for it for that week too.

So if you could see your way clear to donating a few quid that would be brilliant, and between us and you, we will be keeping 15 people safe and warm for a few days... its that simple to be honest!

The Caring 365 Shelter is a homeless shelter in central Bristol run by the Caring in Bristol charity (https://caringinbristol.co.uk/) who do lots of fantastic work to help the homeless in Bristol, and all the money you donate will go directly to the charity.

So  - you may ask - why are the residents of a  sleepy little village in the Cotswolds doing this ? Well, because despite how helpless we all feel sometimes, the reality is that we ALL - that's you, and us, and everyone who cares - CAN actually have an impact on the big issues facing society today, we are NOT helpless passengers in this journey called life, all we have to do is stop making excuses and start making a difference - so we have decided to do just that! 

Will you help ? 

(oh - and one last thing....  even if you can't make a donation please can you encourage your friends and family to support us?  Just share our story on Facebook and send a link to this page to everyone you know... oh, and to strangers :)
