The EitC Stadium Sleepout helps raise vital funds for the charity’s Home Is Where The Heart Is programme, which is dedicated to helping those who are homeless or who are on the verge of being homeless.

Since launching, hundreds of supporters who have taken part in Sleepouts over the years have raised thousands of pounds towards the sustainability and development of HIWTHI, which has helped to prevent almost 100 young people from falling into homelessness to date.

EitC is asking supporters to help the charity continue to deliver the HIWTHI programme to those who need it most by taking part in a historic Sleepout at Everton’s new home on the banks of the River Mersey.

We have both completed the sleepout at Goodison Park but couldn't resist the chance to sleep at the new stadium. It's sure to be colder down by the riverside, but unfortunately there are many people who are at risk of being homeless so we want to do our part again to do something to help them.
