Forth Capital 'Sleep in the Park'
Community | by Trudi Hayes
On 8th December, our Forth Capital team took part in a sponsored nationwide sleep-out in a very chilly Edinburgh park to help with the fight to end homelessness in Scotland. Sleeping in the open air in just sleeping bags with a plastic survival bag guaranteed an uncomfortable night, with a light drizzle to wake up to in the morning. So far we have raised over £4200 and the amount is still growing.
All proceeds raised will go to Social Bite; and to their various projects including an employment programme, providing supported accommodation, organising charity winter sleep-outs, providing Christmas dinners and presents for the homeless and many other projects.
