Our Great Tommy Sleep Out TESC-EAST

Dear Friends,

Again this year we are honouring this  Sleep Out in memory of Chris Forbes of Lakenheath, who sadly passed away last February. Chris was a truly passionate supporter of our Armed Forces and Veterans, dedicating his time and heart to their wellbeing.

Many of you will remember Chris for his unwavering commitment to homeless veterans—he never missed the opportunity to show his support, camping outside Lakenheath Co-op for numerous nights each year during the Great Tommy Sleep Outs. His compassion and dedication left an indelible mark on all who knew him, and his legacy continues to inspire us.

In tribute to Chris, we will be sleeping out this year in his memory. At our camp, you will find a poster bearing Chris's picture, alongside a memorial candle that will burn throughout the night, a small beacon of remembrance and respect.

This one’s for you, Chris.

We kindly invite you to show your generous support for this cause by making a donation via the QR code provided. Your kindness makes a significant difference to the lives of those who have served and now find themselves without shelter.

Thank you for standing with us in honouring Chris’s memory and supporting our veterans.

With gratitude, 

Paul & The ESS Team, STANTA
