My Story

Firstly thank you so much for reading this !!!

Lauren and I are most certainly on the same page when it comes to Charity,"life is about what we give to help another"

STREETPAWS a charity that helps with  homelessness,Mental health,and dogs seemed the perfect fit,

so with Laurens support encouragement and promise that she will  bring me a coffee or two on the night together with your help we are going to raise as much money and awareness as possible to help this incredible charity

We want to do our little part to help in three areas we feel extremely passionate about

Mental Health

Homelessness

Dogs

We are a nation of pet lovers, we all understand the positive impact having a pet can bring; both emotional and physical.

 
 No-one should have to choose between their pet and a safe place to sleep.
Street Paws aims to empower homeless people to keep their pet by their side.
Over 20% of homeless people have a pet, this animal is often their only companion, support and family in a world of chaos and instability. 
With only 10% of hostels accepting pets we have seen many people have to choose between abandoning their pet and finding housing. We don't think that's fair, it perpetuates homelessness and makes unhoused pet owners feel even more isolated.
We partner with temporary housing providers to become pet friendly.  Our Dog Champion Scheme provides training, support, and veterinary care to ensure that unhoused individuals can be welcomed with their dogs, preserving the precious bond they share and improving the community and wellbeing of all residents through the power of pet therapy.

"Most of us have probably never experienced homelessness first hand but at some point or another we have all felt lost. In these instances we seek things to keep us going and to find our way.

In Manchester City centre Bumper is what keeps J navigating his life"   Mark Trapani

So to help me help street paws I'm joining compassionate people from across Manchester for an unforgettable night beneath the stars. I will be sleeping out in Emirates Old Trafford Cricket Ground, raising funds for people facing adverse poverty and homelessness in the Manchester area.

Can I just stress as this is very important to me I am not sleep rough or  "homeless" for a night as I feel to even say that would totally undermine the plite of someone who Is unfortunately homeless I spending a night under the stars to raise awareness for homelessness and raise as much money money possible for STREETPAWS as it's a hell of lot easier than running a marathon 😂

Thank you for your kindness, your generosity, and your commitment to making the world a better place for everyone.
huge love ❤️ Lauren and Eli and all the Lauren Stone International Crew 🐾🐾🐾
