Police chief campsout for charity

South Yorkshire Police chief constable Meredydd Hughes was one of more than 200 volunteers who swapped his warm bed for a sleeping bag for a charity fundraiser last night.

The annual “Big Sleepout” is organised by children’s charity Safe@Last, which supports young runaways. It takes place at the Parkgate Shopping Centre in Rotherham and at Meadowhall.
