‘Team Focus’ are raising funds in aid of Depaul UK – a national homelessness charity with a focus on young people. On Weds 12th March Laura Currie, Barry Higgott, Lisa Moseling, Hazel Dawson, Tony Edge, Victoria Weaving-Shorrocks, Dani Ives, Joanne Emerson, Bob Schumacher and industry colleagues will be carrying rucksacks full of donated items on a 10k sponsored ‘weighted walk’ from London City Airport to Depaul UK’s offices in Southwark. Raising money to help keep essential services running and giving young people experiencing homelessness the chance of a brighter future.
The team are proud to have recently partnered with Depaul UK who have been working to end homelessness for over 30 years, and offer specialist services to support young people experiencing or at-risk of homelessness. With nowhere to go and no one to turn to many are forced into unsafe situations. Not only is a young person fleeing home carrying the weight of their belongings but also the worry and stress of an unknown future. The money raised will help provide emergency and temporary accommodation, counselling and mediation, education, and training; as well as the life skills a young person needs.
Here’s our fundraising page, any donation no matter how small will help make a difference, thank you.
