Sleep Out 2019

Could you rough it for one night to prevent homelessness becoming a reality for vulnerable young people in Sheffield?

Story

I am braving a cold winter night by swapping my bed for a sleeping bag and a cold hard floor in a warehouse to help us support young homeless people in Sheffield. Be inspired by young people supported by Roundabout and hear how youth homelessness is an issue in our city and how you can help. Enjoy some food and entertainment during the evening, then at midnight its lights down and into sleeping bags as the challenge begins. Roundabout provides emergency accommodation for homeless young people at their hostel and support young people to live independently in secure bedsits and in shared housing throughout the city. Roundabout also offers young people a comprehensive programme of training and involvement which breaks the cycle of homelessness and develops long term independent living skills. Roundabout supports over 182 young people aged 16-25 in Sheffield everyday who are homeless or at risk of homelessness.
