Story

After the fantastic success of the first ever Molineux Sleepout, Wolves Foundation have planned a new virtual sleepout for 2020, with Covid-19 restrictions meaning a repeat of the event this time last year unable to take place.

The Sleepout will be back when regulations allow in 2021, but the Foundation are again linking up with the Good Shepherd to suggest fans take on a sleepout in their home environment to support the two charities in their efforts to reduce the effects of food poverty within the city.

Supporters are being encouraged to take part in the virtual sleepout on the night of 27th November 2020, for an entry fee of £10 for adults and £5 for children, with additional fundraising very much encouraged with participants urged to become a 'Sleepout Star' by raising a suggested £50 target.

Anyone who raises at least £50 will be entered into a draw for full signed squad 20 / 21 shirt.

The entry fee alone will ensure participants are able to get involved in virtual activities around the sleepout on the night, which will feature Zoom calls with some well-known faces, including Foundation ambassadors and former players.

Wolves Foundation, Wolves official charity, requires funding support to carry out a range of projects in the local community, including focusing on health and education, and they are aiming over the coming months to address many of the issues which will result from the economic effects of the pandemic, including food poverty.

The Good Shepherd set out as a charity providing food for rough sleepers and those in poverty, and whilst still delivering a daily takeout service during the pandemic, also now offers help and support in many other areas including benefits and accommodation advice, mental health, addiction and self-care.

Addressing food poverty remains one of their core aims, and between July and September of this year, the charity had 677 different individuals attending the service, served 7,168 hot meals, 1,082 individual food parcels and 330 individual food parcels.

Join the pack, and take part in the Virtual Molineux Sleepout by purchasing a ticket today. Follow our social media for more information @wwfcfoundation.
