We're a non-profit organisation, that go round the Leeds City Centre, handing out food, beverages, clothing, and toiletries. We started as a small group of friends, that met up on Christmas Eve 2012, with only a flask of hot chocolate and biscuits, just offering our time so they had at least one person to talk to on the day. We enjoyed the night so much we decided to do the same next week. 5 years later, here we are, a large group of friends, who regularly come to help out handing out hot food, tents, various drinks, clothing, and anything that can help them get through the night.
