It's down on our prog as Shelterbox Night, but we've done lots of fundraising for overseas charity with our Nepal expedition so it seemed like a good idea to support something closer to home...
We will raise a donation to support 'The Ark' - Shrewsbury's charity supporting homeless people in the area, particularly important as a safety net to help those finding things falling apart at this time of year.
We will make our own makeshift shelters and sleep overnight - out in the open if its nice, but if the weather is bad, we can be indoors in the hut, and we'll cook a good full English breakfast in the morning and remember how fortunate we are!
Bring a cardboard house (I'll bring a spare box or two...) and a £10 note (or whatever you can afford...) to donate to The Ark.
We will have a speaker from The Ark to tell us about their work and receive our donation!
As an overnight thing we need a consent form...
