Don’t just believe our word about RSHP’s Sleep Out, listen to some other famous names from Reading about what they think: “It’s never going to be easy to sleep outside but its nothing compared to the unimaginable hardship that people go through when they have no home of their own. Get involved to make sure that some of the most vulnerable people of Reading are in RSHP’s safe hands.” Marcus Hahnemann (Reading FC Goalkeeper): “It could be cold, it might be uncomfortable, but it will make a difference. It’s a chance for people in Reading to take action, and support a charity who is working tirelessly to end social exclusion caused by homelessness. Together we can put homelessness on the bench.” Nicky Shorey (Reading FC and England Footballer) “This is my third year supporting the Sleep Out. Sleeping Out in 2008 can give chances to people in Reading and surrounding areas who are lost with no where else to turn. RSHP is the first step to long term housing, health, education and self esteem for many people who have suffered from homelessness.”Kenneth Branagh (Oscar Nominated Director)
