The Celtic Sleep Out, London will return to St Anne's Primary in Whitechapel on Friday, December 3, 2021 and will once again be an integral element of our annual Christmas Appeal.

Having been unable to host the event last year, we're so excited to welcome supporters back for another wonderful night under the stars at St Anne's which holds huge historical and emotional significance for the Celtic Family.

In 1892, five years after his leading role in the formation of Celtic Football Club, the Marist Order moved Brother Walfrid from Glasgow to the Whitechapel area of London's East End. Over the next 15 years, as Head Teacher at St Anne's Primary, Brother Walfrid transformed the school and also established local boys' clubs and a project to provide meals to the poor in the local community.

Participants will spend the night from 9.00pm to 5.00am battling the elements outdoors, all for a wonderful cause.

Places are limited and will be allocated on a first come, first served basis. The non-refundable registration fee is £30 per person. Please ensure you read the Terms and Conditions thoroughly before committing your agreement and signing up.

Should you have an outstanding sponsorship balance from a previous Celtic FC Foundation event, this must be settled in full prior to registering for this Event or your registration will be suspended pending full payment of the total due.

Due to anticipated severe weather conditions, this event will be exceptionally challenging, both mentally and physically. Therefore, participants must be aged 18+ and be in an appropriate physical condition to take part.

Celtic FC Foundation will provide a ground mat and foil sheet/blanket but participants are required to bring the appropriate equipment and wear relevant clothing and footwear.

Each participant is tasked with raising a minimum of £130 (after entry fee) and all funds raised will support our 2021 Christmas Appeal, which reflects the very essence of why our Club was set up back in 1887.

The Appeal will help to bring the magic of the festive season to children, families, pensioners and others who are struggling at an especially challenging time of year.

So please follow in the footsteps of Brother Walfrid and help us make a difference to those most in need within our communities this Christmas. Thank you so much for your wonderful support!

At Celtic FC Foundation, we take our supporters', participants' and partners' privacy very seriously. We will use your information to process your event entry and to send important service messages. See our Privacy policy for full details.
