SHEFFIELD\u2019S Cathedral Archer Project have launched their Virtual Easter Egg Hunt to help raise funds for the service which has seen a surge in demand over the past year.<\/p>\n

Organisers are encouraging punters from across South Yorkshire to get involved with the competition, which involves a set of entertaining tasks, all of which can be completed from home.<\/p>\n

Emily Bowes, Marketing and Development Coordinator at the Project, said: \u201cThe aim of the Hunt is to provide something simple and fun for people to do at home whilst we are in lockdown.\u201d<\/p>\n

In exchange for \u00a35, households receive a \u2018challenge sheet\u2019, where they have until midday on March 25 to complete as many activities from it as possible.<\/p>\n

The competition ends one week before the holiday period, and the most successful entry will receive a hamper of Easter treats to bask in the glory of winning-over the judges.<\/p>\n

With tickets costing the price of a takeaway coffee, competitors\u2019 contributions will be handed-to the Archer Project which provides homeless people with the medical support, food, and education they need.<\/p>\n

Explaining the impact of donating, Emily added: \u201cThe money raised will go towards our work supporting homeless adults from sleeping bag to employment.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe hope lots of people will get involved and help us raise awareness of our work whilst having fun!\u201d<\/p>\n

Throughout 2020, the service was forced to adapt if it were to continue helping Sheffield\u2019s most vulnerable citizens.<\/p>\n

Over 850 people were supported with more than 8,400 meals being distributed by the Archer project last year.<\/p>\n

Multiple agencies worked together to ensure provisions were accessible to those in need seven days a week.<\/p>\n

Talking about the Coronavirus restrictions, Emily said: \u201cFrom April we primarily supported those who were rough sleeping.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur work is focused on helping people move away from homelessness towards a stable and fulfilling life, but due to numerous lockdowns this has been harder and harder.\u201d<\/p>\n

Participants are assured that the Treasure Hunt complies with current government guidelines as the tasks are designed to be completed anywhere in peoples\u2019 homes.<\/p>\n

Public support is more important than ever, with the past year forcing them to juggle the impact of the pandemic and a potentially devastating blaze back in May.<\/p>\n

Emily said: \u201cThe public have been amazing at supporting us throughout the pandemic and the fire.<\/p>\n

\u201cWithout them, we wouldn\u2019t have been able to continue to support people who are homeless.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
