Katie takes part in the Calderdale Big Sleepout
Katie (and her dad) took part in the Calderdale Big Sleepout 2019 on Friday 11th October. She slept under the stars at the Piece Hall to raise awareness and money for Calderdale SmartMove – a charity supporting homeless and vulnerable people across Calderdale. To date, Katie and her dad have raised £205.50 for the charity. Katie jumped at the chance to do this as she has always shown a concern for the homeless and has often bought food and hot drinks for those in need when she has been out. We are all very proud of her dedication to this cause.
Katie had a great time and said: “It was cold but extremely fun. We had hot dogs and hot chocolate too.”
We are supporting SmartMove again this year through our Harvest collection. Thank you to all who have donated foods or toiletries, we will be collecting up until the end of the half term – Thursday 24th October.
