A team of employees from Crewe-based Optimum Pay Group will tackle a charity challenge in aid of homelessness.<\/p>\n

The four, headed up by UK sales director Tamara Beckett, will take part in a 24 hour “stay awake” challenge on the streets of Crewe.<\/p>\n

They want to raise awareness and funds for Crisis – the national charity for people experiencing homelessness.<\/p>\n

They will be spending the time on the streets without the normal comforts of home such as shelter, safety, running water, beds and beauty items.<\/p>\n

Optimum Pay Group<\/a> wants to raise funds for Crisis, which not only deals with people experiencing homeless directly but also campaigns for changes to help prevent future homelessness.<\/p>\n

The impact of Covid-19 has sparked a rise in homelessness with 160,000 people either sleeping rough or in temporary housing.<\/p>\n

Tamara Beckett, Optimum Pay Group\u2019s UK Sales Director, said: “In the modern world of convenience, it is all too easy to take all you have for granted, I know I have at times.<\/p>\n

“That\u2019s why I whole-heartedly believe in treating everyone as I would like to be treated.<\/p>\n

“I\u2019m taking on this challenge, to get a minor glimpse into how experiencing homelessness can affect a person whilst raising funds to help reduce and prevent homelessness in the future.”<\/p>\n

The Optimum Pay Group team will start the challenge at 8am and follow it through to 8am the next day.<\/p>\n

They are aiming to raise \u00a33,000 for the charity.<\/p>\n

To help end homelessness and support the team in their fundraising efforts you can donate or share their Just Giving page.<\/p>\n
