Sponsored Sleep Out
10 October 2025. One Night, Big Impact
Friday 10 October, St John of Jerusalem church garden
Hackney Night Shelter's annual sponsored Sleep Out is back for its 3rd year! Join us to make it the best yet.
Why get involved?
✅ Raise crucial funds – Your efforts will help provide emergency accommodation and support into settled accommodation for over 200 people this year.
✅ Build community – Team up with friends, family, colleagues, neighbours.
✅ Amplify awareness – Shine a light on homelessness in London and the life-changing work your support makes possible.
The Sleep Out is not intended to replicate the dangers and harsh conditions experienced by people sleeping rough.
We will gather together in the evening for soup, a little live music and to hear from former shelter guests. In the morning we'll head indoors for a cooked breakfast. It will be very safe and suitable for all ages.
Everyone who sleeps out will get a Hackney Night Shelter hooded top - yours to keep. We do ask that each person aims to raise at least £250 - we can help with fundraising ideas. To help with covering the cost of running the event, there is a £20 registration fee payable when you book your place.
