We’re excited to announce the return of our flagship fundraising event with Sleep Out 2025. Now in its 13th year, the event has attracted thousands of participants since its inception, and helped change hundreds of young lives.
Sleep Out 2025 takes place on Friday 10th October, returning to Farnborough Business Park, which has proven to be a fantastic venue for the last few years.
Once again, the Sleep Out challenges participants to give up the warmth and comfort of their beds for the night and sleep under the night sky. While not intended to replicate sleeping rough, it does help to raise awareness of homelessness and bring in vital funds.
Last year, over 100 participants braved the cold, raising an incredible £19,000 to support young people with accommodation, wellbeing support, and life skills training (check out our 2024 highlights video below).
This year, we’re aiming for Sleep Out to be even bigger, but we can’t do that without you.
Participants can expect a fantastic evening, with inspiring speeches, live music and a barbeque, before the sun goes down, temperatures drop and the challenge of sleeping out begins.
Anda Chiu, Head of Fundraising, commented: “Not only is the Sleep Out an enjoyable and inspiring event, it’s a key fundraiser for the charity, supporting services that hundreds of young people rely on each year. I love seeing the event bringing everyone together, united in raising funds and awareness for such an important cause.”
If you would like to join us and show solidarity for young people facing homelessness, please head over to our Sleep Out registration page now.
