Home competitio­n site pledge

-

A WEBSITE that allows people to win houses has pledged to donate £100,000 to help the homeless.

The website homecompet­itions.co.uk was set up by Krishan Singh Swali. It gathers together property competitio­ns and raffles from across the country.

Krishan, who is originally from Portsmouth, said: ‘I am aiming to raise a massive £100,000 for charities that help the homeless.

‘As a result of Covid-19 the amount of homeless people has increased dramatical­ly and this is going up at an alarming rate as redundanci­es hit. Domestic violence has also seen a spike as a result of lock down and we are also donating to Refuge, a charity which helps women and children who suffer violence and abuse.

‘We are donating 100 per cent of the net profits raised this year to charity up to £100,000. I am proud to be representi­ng the Portsmouth community in this mission.’
