Lord Mayor and mother-of-four Mary Clarkson will be braving the cold to take part in the city’s annual Sleep-Out.

It is expected that more than 100 people will join Mrs Clarkson for the event in St Clement’s Churchyard in Marston Road next Saturday.

The annual Sleep-Out, which was launched in 1995, raises cash and awareness for charities working with the city’s homeless.

Over the past 13 years the event has raised more than £200,000. For more details about the event, visit oxfordsleepout.moonfruit.com
