This winter, Manchester United is hosting a stadium sleepout at Old Trafford, in support of vulnerable young people across Greater Manchester.

Loz Clarke, Chris Hilton and I will be swapping our beds for a sleeping bag and spending the night outside on the floor, as we unite to raise vital funds and awareness for those experiencing hardship this winter.

Funds raised will be split between Manchester United Foundation and Centrepoint, a charity that supports homeless young people, for the two charities to support individuals who are living in crisis this winter.

Together with other supporters, we will spend the night outdoors in the dropping November temperatures and will gain insight into the big issues surrounding homelessness and what can be done to support in local communities.

Last year, 121,000 young people asked for help with homelessness. This year, we can all make a difference to those loess fortunate than us, by putting your hand in your pocket and helping me raise funds for those who need it the most.
