‘I Ended Up Carrying Him to the Ambulance’ — Jonny Warren on Three Nights Sleeping Rough
After spending three nights homeless on the streets of Canberra, Jonny Warren has returned with stories he’ll never forget.
The Jonny Warren Properties CEO went beyond the traditional Vinnies CEO Sleepout challenge, spending three freezing nights with no money and no food while getting to know people experiencing homelessness firsthand.
One encounter in particular took an unexpected turn.
“I ended up carrying him to the ambulance,” Jonny told Hit 104.7’s Weekend Breakfast.
From emergency services arriving on night one to powerful conversations with people doing it tough, Jonny says it was a humbling yet lifechanging experience.
