From Iona in the Western Isles of Scotland, to Brighton on the South Coast of England, from the Hexham Abbey in the North East to the Malvern Hills to Brixton in the centre of London, people have been sleeping out in support of destitute asylum seekers. They came together under the Just. Fair banner as part of the Still Human Still Here coalition, but each event had its particular local flavour.
Here is just a snapshot of some of the sleepouts that took place.
