Last year, 118,000 young people across the UK faced homelessness. This is unacceptable.

That's why this February, alongside Newsquest colleagues across the country, we swapped our beds for a night on the floor to support Centrepoint's vital wraparound services, providing young people with the skills and support they need to build more independent futures.

Sleep Out does not intend to replicate homelessness, but instead aims to raise awareness and crucial funds for the thousands of young people who don't have a secure place to call home.

In August, we'll also deliver a series of support supplements across seven of our newsbrands in Oxfordshire, Wiltshire, Buckinghamshire & Berkshire to raise vital funds and awareness of the cause.

Together, we can say goodnight to youth homelessness.
