The Big Sleepout 2024
Campaign by Streetlife (RCN 1078167)
Every year over 150 people spend a night sleeping on the street outside St John’s Church, Blackpool to raise awareness and vital funds to keep Streetlifes emergency night shelter open for people aged 16-25.

Story

I am spending the night sleeping on the street for the second year running so a vulnerable young person doesn't have to!

On the 22nd March 2024 I will be sleeping outside St. John’s Church in Blackpool’s town centre. The Big SleepOut raises vital funds to keep our town’s only emergency night shelter open for vulnerable young people aged 16-25.

The funds raised during the Big SleepOut go towards the annual operating costs to keep this emergency night shelter open all year round, providing accommodation for homeless young people in the town.

My very generous employer, Beaverbrooks will be match funding every single penny our team raises so please donate any amount you can spare as it will all help make a difference to local young people.
