Where are you sleeping tonight?
Last night Eaton Cllr James Wright slept out on the streets to promote awareness of the homeless crisis in Norwich and raise money for the Benjamin Foundation. This was his 4th Benjamin Foundation Sleep Out, and he was joined by over 140 others who bedded down in the car park of Norwich City Football Club for the night. Participants were delighted that Norman Lamb MP was able to pay a visit, and James would like to thank Norman for his generous support.
The Benjamin Foundation wants to end youth homelessness and are tackling the problem locally by providing a home and support to over 100 vulnerable young adults each night. They give the young people stability and support their education, training and careers and ensure they have life skills such as shopping, cooking and being able to budget their money so they can leave us to forge an independent life.

Homelessness is the single biggest crisis that we could, but choose not to tackle effectively and it's absolutely despicable.
