Cambridge Convoy Refugee Action Group – Sponsored Sleep-out
Saturday February 10–Sunday February 11
Time: 12:00 pm – 8:00 am
Location: St Giles Church, Castle St, Cambridge CB3 0AQ
The annual winter fair and sponsored sleep-out will be back at St Giles’ Church on the weekend of 10 and 11 February.
This year their partner charity is Emmaus Cambridge, who help homeless people start a new life off the streets.
On the Saturday the winter fair will feature stalls selling vintage clothes, food and drink, crafts, CamCRAG raffle, second hand books and other gifts. The fair will start at 12 noon, and finish at 4pm.
Then on the Saturday night, after a hearty meal, the sponsored sleepers will settle down for the night in the church grounds.
You can donate to the sleep-out fundraising campaign via justgiving at camcrag.org.uk/SleepoutDonate
Could you spend a night outside raising money for refugees and the homeless? We have a limited number of spaces available if you want to be one of our sponsored sleepers: Find out more and register now at camcrag.org.uk/SleepoutSignup
All money raised at the Fair will go to support the work supporting refugees in Europe, and a portion of the sponsorship of the sleepers will be given to Emmaus.
Can you help organise the event, publicise it, or help on the day setting up, preparing food, stewarding, or tidying up? If so please e-mail volunteer@camcrag.org.uk
What’s Ons are broadcast across the day at 7.50, 10.30, 1.30 and 4.30, and at weekends.
