Lucy Sleeps Rough for Charity!

24th October 2011

Lucy - the action-girl of WV One - has been at it again!

Not content with abseiling down the city's highest building, this time she slept rough on Friday night in aid of the P3 charity, helping homeless people in the city to make a new life for themself.

From 10pm to 6am, Lucy and around seventy other people slept on the Civic Centre Piazza - wearing many many layers and with sleeping bags galore they were kept entertained until 4am by the music from nearby Yates' bar and had an impromptu disco outside the civic buildings.  Late night revellers joined in the fun, some donating to the worthy cause once they discovered why so many people had given up their beds for the night.

Bacon and sausage baps were handed out the next morning - kindly supplied by the Litten Tree and Lady Wulfrun bars and cooked by the P3 kitchen staff.

If you would like to donate to the P3 cause - which is aiming to set up a recycling project in the city to help homeless people gain their independence - follow this link www.justgiving.com/p3bigsleepout
