Sweet dreams? - sponsor a bed for someone less fortunate

While we're all tossing and turning in our beds at night wondering how we're going to afford Christmas, I think we should all spare a thought for those without a bed to lie awake in, let alone keep out of the cold. I saw a campaign for The St. Patrick's Trust which helps homeless people in Brighton and Hove and saw that I could sponsor a bed for a night or longer. £10 for a night (about the same as the office secret santa cost) will give a person warmth, security and food. I'm going to make an online donation. You can find out more at https://www.lorica.org.uk/st_patricks.htm and there's a link through for donations.
