Story

Huddersfield Giants Community Trust and The Howarth Foundation are passionate about raising as much awareness and valuable funds to support people in our community. Taking place on Friday 14th of October, the sleepout will be held overnight to provide a powerful insight into a one-off experience of what it is like to spend a night outdoors. The Howarth Foundation works with local third-sector organisations to support individuals who are vulnerable on the streets by providing work packages to make the transition back into employment more accessible for the individual. One back-to-work package costs a minimum of £500, which includes food parcels, clothing and travel. HGCT uses the power of sport, working with local stakeholders to create opportunities for disadvantaged children in the school holidays by providing mainstream sports and food packages to keep them active, healthy and engaged.
