SUPPORTERS of The Rock Trust will be among 2,000 people swapping their beds for a night on the streets as part of a charity drive to help homeless young people.

The sponsored "sleep out" will take place at Festival Square in Edinburgh on November 6 and is being organised by The Rock Trust, which has helped 400 young people from the east of Scotland since last year's event. Rock Trust Chief Executive Kate Polson: "We're encouraging workmates, families, teams and individuals to sign up."
