I am raising funds for Zac's Place, and hoping to help increase awareness of the rarely-acknowledged widespread homelessness across South Wales.

This is a cause very close to my heart. I know full well that taking part in a charity sleep-out won't replicate the challenges that homeless people face - sleeping rough is just the tip of the iceberg and doesn't even begin to cover the extraordinary scope of homelessness. It will, however, prove an effective way of increasing awareness, provoking action and raising much-needed funds for a fantastic charity.

I'd feel embarrassed to receive donations any larger than a tenner, as spending one night 'sleeping rough' isn't a monumental challenge by any stretch. But, if you could spare a couple of quid - or better yet, join me and plenty other volunteers for the night - I can assure you that you'll be making a difference for a worthy cause.
