March 30th 2022
With the aim to raise awareness of homelessness in the City, the Lady Mayoress and the Lord Mayor will be ditching their comfortable bed at Mansion House to sleep in the open air overnight in Guildhall Yard on Wednesday 30 March, 2022.
They invite you to join them and many of their friends who have already signed up.
Registration fee is £25 and minimum sponsorship target £500 per participant.
If taking part is a step too far, you can also sponsor The Lady Mayoress via her JustGiving page here. For everyone’s benefit let’s hope for kind weather.
10% of the net proceeds of the event will be donated to Spitalfields Crypt Trust (SCT) which is an East London charity helping the local community to recover from homelessness, addictions, and other complex needs. The remainder of the net proceeds will go to The Lord Mayor's Appeal and its beneficiary charities, some of which focus on mental health issues which are often one of the main causes of homelessness.
