An opportunity to sleep under the stars at Old Trafford to raise funds & awareness for MU Foundation & Centrepoint to tackle poverty across Greater Manchester. All funds will be split between the 2 charities once fees and costs are deducted.

Story

With the cost of living rising rapidly, young people are being left with impossible choices. Where should they sleep? A friends sofa, again? A night bus? A hospital bed? A cell? With a stranger? On the streets? These are choices no young person should ever have to make. But last year alone over 129,000 young people in the UK were homeless or at risk of homelessness and facing this very question.

We are swapping our beds for sleeping bags to raise vital funds to help young people wake up to change. We want to gain a deeper insight into the impact of homelessness on the lives of young people and life changing support Centrepoint & the Manchester United Foundation provides.

Please help us to raise much needed funds for these incredible causes.

It won't be our most comfortable night's sleep, but it will be our most meaningful!
