A HOST of Harrogate businesses have joined forces to help tackle homelessness in the community by taking part in the town’s first-ever Big Harrogate Sleepout.

The inaugural Big Harrogate Sleepout takes place at Harrogate Rugby Club on the evening of Thursday October 3rd, 2024.

With all proceeds from the event dedicated to the project's initiatives, the sleepout aims to serve as a powerful demonstration of solidarity and commitment to addressing homelessness.

Harrogate Homeless Project provides people experiencing homeless with a safe place to stay and the support they need to build confidence and move towards independent living.
