How did it go?
We wanted this year’s Sleepout to be the biggest we’ve had and it was! 55 people took part in this year’s Sleepout solidarity event and raised an amazing total of £14,616.28, which will go towards helping so many people off the street. Thanks to all the volunteers and participants for their amazing work!
Given the feedback we received, all participants gained a better understanding of rough sleeping and how difficult it is to sleep out under the elements.
One participant said: “What an eye opening experience. It really makes you appreciate the comforts we take for granted. One night is all I had, hard to imagine having to endure this night after night.”
Another said: “I would recommend as many people as possible attend something like this to develop some empathy.”
Help us make the Big Sleepout 2018 an even bigger and more enriching event.
Circle Friday 7th December 2018 now in your diaries and let all your friends and family know!
