Event: Caritas Big Sleep Out, on 13 October 2023
Your fundraising provides practical help and intensive 1:1 support for people experiencing homelessness, gets them into safe secure accommodation, and can prevent homelessness.

Story

Every penny you can afford to donate ensures that people have the support they need to prevent them from becoming homeless, that people who do become homeless are helped to secure safe accommodation with the support they need to make a new home, and that no one has to sleep rough. Examples of what your Big Sleep Out sponsorship could go towards:

£30 - time with a key worker to help start an application for Homelessness and get someone into accommodation.

£50 - hot lunch for 80 people at one of the day centres.

£60 - a new set of clothes (e.g. tracksuit bottoms, t-shirt, sweatshirt, underwear) and toiletries for someone sleeping rough.

The five Caritas homelessness projects are in Bury, Bolton, Blackburn and Manchester.
