Take part in the NOVAS School Sleep-Out 2024
The NOVAS School Sleep Out is an event designed to help raise funds and awareness for homelessness – it gives a small insight into the challenges faced by people experiencing homelessness.
Students get sponsored to brave the cold by swapping their warm beds for a sleeping bag and a piece of cardboard. We’re asking you to join us and help end homelessness.
Your school can take part at any time of the year, and we will work closely with you to develop a personalised Sleep Out event.
We can support you along the way by providing:
- Information about homelessness
- Guidelines on how to organise a safe sleepout
- An online donations page
- Fundraising support, encouragement and advice
- Marketing materials, t-shirts and signage
In addition to this, we would be happy to visit your school to enhance your students’ engagement in the event, celebrate your support across our social media channels and attend your event.
Your school’s support will make a real impact in your local community. If you’re interested in having a NOVAS Sleep Out at your school, we would love to talk to you.
