I'm taking action to help end homelessness.

I’ve committed to sleeping in my self built camper van this year, thats 365 days and nights – Ive spent vast amounts of my life sleeping on cold concrete and in burnt down or abandoned buildings during my life and it’s a bad night’s sleep and can be daunting and unsafe, So here I am now,.. Ive left a narsasistic relationship which Im lucky to be alive still, Im a little to old to sleep on the concrete anymore and my body let's me know all the signs of my past so I decided to purchase a cheap van while I was able to secure some temporary work whilst living in it, so for a good cause Ive decided to use this chance to support others sleeping rough and those lucky enough to have cars to sleep in which by almeans are still experiencing a rough time.

The increased cost of living, impact of domestic violence, and lack of affordable housing are all factors contributing to a homelessness crisis in Australia. I’ve joined Sleep In Your Car to raise awareness and vital funds to help families and friends finding a safe home. By giving up one year of comfort, I am raising awareness and vital funds to help end homelessness and trying to show that nothing is impossible if you put you mind to it and are willing to work towards it.

I’d love your support today by contributing to the life-changing services provided by Mission Australia.

Together, we can ensure that all people in a bad situation like homelessness and houseless alike have a safe place to call home or if not, the know how to build towards something comfortable and safe to sleep in, I am willing to help those that can help themselves with any modifications nessasary with in my knowledge or will help you find some one else that can, all I ask is that you can donate to mission Australia or possibly help with finding some partime  work or a carpark to park and sleep in, near or in surfers paradise. Thankyou all for reading this far.
