Launchpad didn't want COVID-19 and social distancing to put a stop to their much-loved annual event, the Big Sleep Out. Which is why this year, a few of us from PRA, together with some family members,  have decided to brave the outdoors on World Homelessness Day, Saturday 10 October, and raise vital funds for Launchpad - at home!

We will be swapping our comfortable beds for sleeping bags in the garden for the night to get a brief insight into some of the things we may experience if we were sleeping rough - such as cold temperatures, an uncomfortable bed and limited sleep. 

With every pound we raise for Launchpad, we are helping to ensure that people at risk of homelessness in Reading don't have to face those conditions night-after-night. 

A big THANK YOU for your support!
