Members of GMB union raised over £5,000 and counting on Monday 1st of October when they did a sponsored Sleep-Out for us. The event took place on Millennium Square in Leeds, the weather was not bad at all; especially considering the amount of rain we’d had in the week prior to the event.
Before bedding down for the night there was a walk of awareness in which ex-rough sleepers told their personal stories about what life had been like at its worst for them, and why homelessness and rough-sleeping is just the tip of the iceberg.
