The 40 Hour Famine

A guest blog post by Reuben, typed by Hannah.  

At the weekend, I took part in the World Vision 40 Hour Famine, which is an event where you ask people to sponsor you for giving up something in your daily life, such as food, using electronics, etc.  All the money raised is going to help build child-friendly spaces for Syrian refugees. This year I chose to give up using furniture and having meals prepared for me.  That means I had to sleep and eat on the floor and help cook all the meals.

I started my 40 hours at bedtime on Friday evening at 8pm.
