Propertymark takes part in charity sleep out

On 21November over 100 people slept out at Queen Elizabeth Olympic park in London, as part of Centrepoint’s Sleep Out organised by Propertymark.

The team raised over £57,938 for the charity which supports 15,000 homeless young people a year.

The Arbon Trust, Propertymark’s charitable arm, are also adding to this total.

Centrepoint offers practical on-the-ground support to homeless people age 16-25, focussing on providing a safe place to stay and the building blocks for an independent life.

Lauren Scott, president at NAEA Propertymark, who took part in the sleep out, said: “It’s absolutely overwhelming to have this many people from our industry come together on a freezing cold night in November to raise money for such a fantastic cause!

“The money raised will provide vital safety and security to vulnerable young people in our country, so it’s been fantastic to have such a large turnout.”
