Story
Almost anyone who has taken a walk through Belfast city centre in recent years will have noticed a number of people forced to sleep rough in the streets, with little or no protection from the elements and other dangers. You may also have noticed the large, red and orange vans from the Welcome Organisation, who provide vital support for the homeless population of Belfast, both in immediate practical support and also in terms of long term help to get settled into accommodation, etc.
I will be sleeping rough in Belfast for a weekend (Sept 30th and Oct 1st) in order to raise awareness of this issue and to raise some funds to support the work of the Welcome Organisation by way of sponsorship.
To this end, any and all donations/sponsorship would be greatly appreciated, with all money going directly to the Welcome Organisation. (And if you are a UK income tax payer, make sure to Gift Aid your donation!!)
