The sleep out is about recognising , not replicating, what its like to sleep rough during the winter months.

I took part last year and also joined Tim Ringsdore in July this year when we spent a rather wet night sleeping outside Trinity Parish Hall as part of Tim's 12 Parish Sleep Out.

I am anticipating another uncomfortable night but it will be a reminder of what it's like living without a permanent roof over your head.

Any donation you are able to make will directly support the essential work of the Trust for which both they and I will be extremely gratefull.

Best wishes

Philip
