Refugee Biriyani & Bananas Sleep Out

On 31st March/1st April I will be sleeping outside with some other RBB friends to raise money for Ruhi Loren Akhtar's forthcoming aid mission to support refugees in Northern Greece and Serbia.

Sleeping out with a group of friends for one night will not only be good fun but it will raise awareness and funds via sponsorship. Bring your kids with you (older kids), bring a picnic, bring your guitar, bring a sleeping bag. Ask your family and friends to sponsor you.

Sleeping out every night, in all weathers, because you have had to leave your home, your country, and all your possessions is no fun at all. It is a nightmare. So we will do this for one night to stand in solidarity with our refugee brothers and sisters.

Refugee Biriyani & Bananas, who have been helping displaced people in France and Greece for over a year and sending containers of aid further afield, will be buying locally sourced supplies in Thessaloniki and Belgrade mid-April onward for an aid delivery mission.

Help us to raise money for this, and then follow Ruhi's trip on FB, as she brings a ray of hope to people who have been abandoned and forgotten by EU governments.

Sleep out will be in a coastal location in the North East to be revealed at a later date, and we will car share.

So far the following people are confirmed to participate in this sleep out:

Jane Elizabeth Heatherington
Sarah Gamblin
Farah Hussain
Mollie Brown
Adele Evitt
Emily Tosholofelo Gibson
David Harrop
Emma Robson 
Jolanda Fitzgerald
Melissa Commercial 
Mary Pidcock 
Saeed Ahmed 
Simon Kemp 
Basil Hassoo
Mahmoud Rahim 

Please sponsor us whatever you can to provide some comfort to these suffering people.

Please leave a comment with the name of the person your sponsorship is for if you choose to do it online.
