On Friday 10th March YMCA, Newark Emmaus Trust and Shawmind are holding ‘The Big Newark Sleep Out’ at the Village.
Sponsored by Buttercross Estates, ‘The Big Newark Sleep Out’ aims to bring the local community together for a night of fundraising as they sleep out and get a flavour of the life of a rough-sleeper, raising money for those who have no option but to do this every night.
This unique event will provide funds for three charities and raise the profile of the young homeless of the town and the issue of mental health-care in the community.
Over a quarter of a million people are homeless in the UK today, and this will worsen as the cost-of-living crisis deepens
