One night can make a lifetime of difference

Homelessness is often hidden on our society. Young people who have no fixed home will often find themselves sleeping at a friends house on a sofa or the floor.
In the past year we have seen young people staying in cars, sleeping on a kitchen floor and in a shed, with many more “sofa surfing”.

The YMCA can help. We can give young people a safe place to stay and provide support to promote independence.

By taking part in our sleep easy campaign you can raise money through sponsorship to stay out for 1 night. Sleep out with us or even on your sofa at home to raise money and awareness of young people and homelessness.

We are Sleeping Out to raise funds and awareness of Youth Homelessness on the 25th of April 2025.

All the info you require is below:

The Sleep out is for over 18’s only, however if you are a young person under 18 and would like to fundraise you can sleep somewhere other than your bed for the night such as the sofa, the floor or have a sleepover.
