Ordinarily, as part of our Christmas Appeal, supporters would be gearing up to spend the night under the stars at either Celtic Park or St. Anne's Primary School in Whitechapel, for our Glasgow and London Sleep Out events.

Unfortunately, like so many other events, these will not be possible this year due to restrictions currently in place.

However, as the crippling effects of the pandemic have added unbearably to the pressures on so many, the assistance provided by Celtic FC Foundation to those who are most vulnerable is now more crucial than ever before.

And that's why we're humbly asking supporters to stay up rather than sleep out, by taking part in a brand new initiative, 'Stay Up for the Champions'.

Proceeds raised will be devoted to the Christmas Appeal phase of our Football for Good Fund, with a particular focus on our charity partners working with those facing homelessness or living in refuge.
