Students sleep under the stars for 'Soldiers of the Street'
On the evening of 28thMarch, 22 students ranging from year 9 – 13 gave up their Friday night to sleep ‘homeless’ outside the Sixth Form Centre in aid of Soldiers Of The Street, a charity which is determined to help the forgotten ex-service personnel whose lives have been affected by homelessness.
With only a piece of recycled cardboard and a sleeping bag, committed students, who wanted to help change the lives of these ex-service personnel who are currently living homeless, spent the whole night through wind and rain under the stars to fundraise money for the charity. The target fundraising goal is to reach £1000 which would help change many lives.[More]
