Arc (formerly Taunton Association for the Homeless) houses, supports and empowers homeless people in Somerset. We are a local homeless charitable organisation, supporting over 450 people per year. Together, we can end rough sleeping in the South West. To read more, please visit our website.

Story

The idea is for participants to get sponsored to sleep outside for just one night in order to raise valuable funds and awareness for the homeless. The funds raised go towards the accommodation and support services Arc provides for the homeless in Somerset. Whilst our event will show some of the harsh realities of rough sleeping, we do not intend to replicate it. The event is a safe, fun and eye opening experience suitable for everyone.
