The Big Family Summer Sleepout

Join us on Saturday 13 June for The Big Family Summer Sleepout!

We’re encouraging families to have the ultimate summer adventure – get into the garden, build yourselves a den, and sleep out to raise funds for local homeless charity, Helping Hands. Joined by Wasps Rugby players, we’ll enjoy a night under the stars for a fantastic cause.

Helping Hands have lost most of their normal income as their shop and café is closed, fundraisers such as marathons are cancelled, and corporate events have stopped. Despite this, over 1000 meals a week are being delivered to the most vulnerable, and rough sleepers who have been rehomed by the council have been provided by Helping Hands with essential furniture, cooking equipment and bedding.

We’re asking that you donate what you can – the suggested amount is the cost of a family meal. (We’ll leave it to you as to what this might be). Get sponsored and raise even more for Helping Hands!

There will be a prize on the night for the best den: upload a picture of your den before the Sleepout to Instagram using the hashtag #TheBigFamilySummerSleepout

To take part, donate your chosen amount of entry fee (cost of a family meal, whatever what might mean to you). If you wish to, set up your own event page and get sponsored!

Thanks again for your support – it is hugely appreciated
