Homelessness has been rising for the last 6 years, it could happen to anyone and its effects can be devastating. This is why I am helping raise money for Crisis, the national charity for single homeless people.

To encourage you to part with your hard earned cash I will be spending the night in a field near Speke Hall in just a sleeping bag - and a full set of thermals, I am a nesh southerner afterall!

I am hoping the thought of me shivering in a field with no internet or source of fresh coffee is worth a pound or two - just click the "Donate" button at the top of the page if you think it is!

You can find out more about homelessness and the work of Crisis at http://www.crisis.org.uk.
