A CHARITY is asking people to give up to comfort of their beds for the night to raise money for homeless youngsters.
Sleep Out at Yours will see participants sleeping rough in their garden on October 9 to raise awareness.
Youth homelessness charity Step by Step is not able to organise a large gathering as in previous years due to the current pandemic.
Instead those taking part will be sponsored to lay on their lawns and pitch down on their patios.
Head of fundraising Anda Chiu said: “
Step by Step accommodates 273 young people each night. As well as providing a safe place to live, the charity supports young people with counselling and personal development.
