Sleep Out is an annual fundraising event organised by The Benjamin Foundation as part of a campaign to end youth homelessness.

Story

For the third year, I'll be taking part in The Benjamin Foundation's Norwich Sleep Out at Norwich Cathedral Cloisters.

Sleep Out does not aim to replicate homelessness and what it is like to be lonely, frightened and vulnerable, but it does give participants a small glimpse of some of the challenges homeless people may face. It is an important fundraising event for The Benjamin Foundation to help prevent youth homelessness and support local young people to take their next steps to leading successful independent lives. In today’s climate of funding cuts, the cost of living and uncertainty following the pandemic, fundraising has become more important than ever.

The Benjamin Foundation is a Norfolk and Suffolk based charity that is committed to ending youth homelessness, tackling the problem locally by providing a home and support vulnerable young people.

Each night they accommodate 180 young people, equating to over 50,000 safe nights sleep a year. They can finally feel safe from youth homelessness.

By making a donation to my fundraising page you could help young people finally feel hopeful of a better future.
