This year I joined more than 200 property professionals at LandAid’s SleepOut to raise money for their ongoing drive to end youth homelessness. We slept in freezing temperatures overnight with just some cardboard boxes and sleeping bag to experience what it is like to not have shelter every night. Supplied with tea, coffee and hot soup, the fundraisers heard speeches from four formerly homeless young people, played board games to keep distracted from the cold and networked before getting as snug as possible to battle the snow that seeped through gaps in the tin roof the Old Spitalfields Market in East London.I must admit that I won the prize for the best ‘bed space’ for his victorious ‘Mann Cave’ that made it through the night, which was the real victory, having raised more than £150k for the charity.
