Charity Sleepout at Southwark Cathedral

After last year's bumper fundraiser, where the Robes Sleepout collected over £60,000, we are undertaking another charity drive overnight on the 30 November 2012.

This small charity that does a big job by providing winter shelter for homeless people and is the only project of its kind between London Bridge and Croydon.

The project provides a hot dinner, somewhere to sleep and wash, and a cooked breakfast for up to 20 guests every night between November and April. Over 80 homeless guests will stay at the shelter this winter.

There will be a service of Compline, after which Comedian Jo Brand will entertain the crowd before bedding down for the night. Early in the morning there will be a service before leaving the churchyard.
