LandAid, the property industry charity, is calling on property professionals in London to brave one night outside to prevent young people from having to do the same.
We are delighted to be Sponsors of The London SleepOut which will take place on Thursday 27 February at The Oval. You can register for the London SleepOut here.
The London SleepOut is part of the LandAid SleepOut Series. Two other LandAid SleepOuts will take place on the following dates:
- The Birmingham SleepOut will take place on Thursday 6 February at Edgbaston Cricket Ground.
- The Bristol SleepOut will take place on Thursday 13 February at Ashton Gate Stadium.
The events are sponsored by Hammerson and Knight Frank, with regional sponsors in each city: Palmer Capital/Fiera Real Estate in London and TFT in Bristol. Each participant will be asked to raise over £150, all fundraising will go towards LandAid’s mission to end youth homelessness.
LandAid hopes to raise over £400,000 from the events.
This is the second LandAid SleepOut. In March 2018 the SleepOut for LandAid House raised £280,000 for LandAid’s flagship development LandAid House near Old Street in London.
Paul Morrish, Chief Executive, LandAid, said: “I am delighted that we are bringing our SleepOut series to multiple locations across the UK this time around. Last year’s event provided a truly impactful opportunity to raise money to help vulnerable young people across the UK. I hope to see as many of you as possible sleeping out for one night with all of us to help make changes to young people’s lives which will last a lifetime.”
Alex Price, CEO, Palmer Capital/Fiera Real Estate, said: “Fiera Real Estate is delighted to sponsor the LandAid London SleepOut, an industry-wide initiative to raise money and awareness to combat homelessness. Given our 25 year track record of building homes and creating communities across the UK, we feel a real connection with this issue and braving a night out with friends and colleagues is a great way to show our support.”
