Sleep rough so others don’t have to.... Spend a night out under the sky, pitch-side at King Power Stadium and help local people experiencing homelessness to get back on their feet. One night can make a lifetime of difference

Story

On Thursday 7th March 2024 myself and members of my team from The Phoenix Programme, will be giving up our beds for the night to support local people experiencing homelessness. Sleeping out on the concrete in the King Power Stadium won't replicate what it really feels like to sleep rough, but we'll be raising awareness and vital funds to make a real difference locally.

All funds raised support YMCA Leicestershire, home to 108 young people who have experienced trauma, abuse, bereavement, poor mental health or family breakdown. Young people are supported to build resilience and develop skills to move on independently.

YMCA also help street homeless adults providing breakfast, food parcels and one to one advice to address issues of homelessness and find a place to live.

This is such a worthwhile charity, please support us to raise money to assist the YMCA in supporting some of the most vulnerable people in our local area.

Thank you in advance!
