Charity Sleepout and Quiz – 21st February 2025 – Wicksteed Park, Kettering

North Northamptonshire Winter Sleepout – 19th January 2024 – Wicksteed Park, Kettering

Fancy taking on a challenge that’ll warm your heart even as you shiver in the cold?

For just one night, trade your comfy bed for a sleeping bag on the floor at the Accommodation Concern Charity Sleepout Fundraiser. Not robust enough? Join us for the Quiz anyway!

Let’s band together to make a tangible difference for those in homelessness and poverty in Northamptonshire. By joining in as a sleeper or supporter, you’ll aid those in our community grappling with tough times.

Your donation will fund vital services like top-notch housing advice, secure supported housing, financial guidance, debt and benefits counselling, and a resettlement program. These are key in helping folks keep their homes, manage their circumstances, and start anew.

Though spending a night on the floor doesn’t fully mirror the dilemmas of the homeless, the Sleepout gives a taste of what it’s like without a proper home. It’s our chance to show we’re serious about stopping people from becoming homeless.

Together, we can drive real change. Come to the Sleepout Fundraiser, and let’s ensure everyone in our community has a place to call home.
