Story
On Friday 13th November 2026, local people, businesses and community groups will come together at Victory Park for The Big Chorley Sleepout 2026.
Together, we're aiming to raise £15,000 to support three organisations making a real difference across Chorley and Lancashire.
This isn't about pretending to understand what it's like to be homeless.
It's about standing alongside people in our community who are facing homelessness, hardship, loneliness and crisis, while raising the funds needed to help them rebuild their lives.
One night outside can help change someone's future.
The Big Chorley Sleepout is delivered in partnership by:
⚽ Chorley FC Community Foundation
Using the power of football to bring people together, reduce loneliness, improve mental wellbeing and create opportunities for children, young people and adults across our community.
❤️ Let's Make a Difference
Providing affordable housing and practical support for people experiencing homelessness and helping people move towards a more stable future.
🤝 SVP Chorley Buddies
Supporting local people through food provision, practical help, companionship and community support for those who need it most.
Together, we believe no one in our community should have to face life's toughest moments alone.
Where Your Money Goes
Every donation helps local people.
Your support could help provide:
Safe places where people can build friendships and reduce loneliness.
Practical support for people experiencing homelessness or housing insecurity.
Emergency food, essentials and community support.
Positive activities for children and young people.
Mental wellbeing projects that help people before they reach crisis point.
Your donation won't just help someone today.
It could change the direction of their future.
