On 18 October 2025, a team from Lester Aldridge will be taking part in YMCA Bournemouth's BIG Sleep Easy 2025. We’ll be sleeping rough for one night, building shelters from cardboard boxes, to raise awareness and funds for those experiencing homelessness in our community.

YMCA Bournemouth provides essential support to individuals facing homelessness in Dorset, offering short-term accommodation, care, and guidance to help them transition into long-term, secure housing. Their work is life-changing, and they continue to make a vital impact in our region.

Since joining the Big Sleep Easy in 2018, we’ve raised over £27,500, and we need your support to continue this important work. Every donation helps provide crucial resources for those in need, and your contribution will help make a real difference to the lives of vulnerable people in our community.

Please donate today to help us raise vital funds for YMCA Bournemouth, so they can continue their transformative work in supporting those who need it most.

Together, we can help tackle homelessness and create a brighter, more secure future for those in need.

Thank you for your support!
