I am an apprentice chef at YMCA Isle of Wight and I was inspired to take part in this year's Sleep Easy after seeing a homeless person on the island. He was sleeping on a bench and everyone was ignoring him but he looked really ill, so I sat nearby and waited until I was sure he was ok. It made me want to do something more to help.

Please sponsor me to sleep out on the streets for a night so that we can help young people who are homeless to turn their lives around and reach their potential.
