Thank you for taking the time to visit this my JustGiving page. After many years of seeing my colleagues at Harvey Nash participate and support this great charity I thought it was about time to do my bit too.

So on 3 October I will join others for Boycott your Bed, sleeping out in London overnight in order to raise awareness and much needed funds for Action for Children to help the many children across the UK who go to bed every night feeling unsafe, cold, hopeless.

4.5 million children live in poverty in the UK - going to bed hungry and struggling to sleep in a cold, damp house. And they then start the next day without a warm coat or shoes that fit.

But it doesn’t have to be like this. Action for Children can give a child warm clothes, hot meals and a proper bed. We can take action for children so they don't miss out.

Any amount donated, however small, will go towards much needed provisions for children when they need it most. Thank you!
