Story

Sleep Out is back for 2021! Could you spend one night outside so young people don't have to?

After a fantastic Ipswich Sleep Out in 2019, but then having to cancel due to COVID in 2020, we are thrilled to be holding this years event at the home of Ipswich Town Football Club this year! We invite you, your friends and colleagues to join us for what we hope will be our biggest Sleep Out to date.

We want to end youth homelessness and we are tackling the problem locally by providing a home and support to over 100 vulnerable young adults each night. We give the young people stability, supporting their education, training and careers and ensure they have life skills such as shopping, cooking and being able to budget their money so they can leave us to forge an independent life.

Your support at Sleep Out will help make this happen. Whether you wish to take part as an individual or in a group, you can help us to keep vulnerable young adults off the streets by fundraising and gaining sponsorship for your challenge.

We are proud to be the eastern region partner of the End Youth Homelessness partnership. Each of the member charities around the UK organise Sleep Out events in November. Money raised helps prevent more young people ending up on the streets.

We ask each participant to raise a minimum of £100.00 in sponsorship, in addition to the registration fee. Click the "Start fundraising" Button to set up your fundraising page for either yourself or your whole group. We want all of our participants to stay safe, so were taking extra measures to ensure that this outdoor event is as COVID-19 secure as possible.
