Sleeping Rough to support those finding it tough. The St Edwards School Sleep Easy, offers a fantastic challenge to pupils and teachers to set themselves a fundraising target, build the best cardboard shelter and ‘survive’ until morning.

Story

One night can make a lifetime of difference.

Around 382,000 people are living without homes in the UK. Whether or not they sleep on sofas, stay in tents or on the streets, nobody deserves such a fate.

The YMCA has started a campaign in which young people can discover how it feels to be in this position by sleeping outside in cardboard boxes (or in more ambitious cases, fortresses) with little to no protection from the elements.

I will be one of these people sleeping outside.

It would be incredible if you could sponsor me by donating any amount of money for this incredible cause run by incredible people.

I'll see you on the other side!
