Turf Sleepout returns this November

Would you pledge to spend one night sleeping out at the famous Turf Moor stadium?

The Turf Sleepout returns on Friday 18th November, and four local charities have come together and are looking for business leaders and members of the public from across the region to join in!

Participants will brave the outdoor elements and sleep under the stars to raise vital funds for four amazing charities in the local area: Burnley Football Club's official charity, Burnley FC in the Community, homeless charity Emmaus Burnley, Pendleside Hospice and Safenet Domestic Abuse Service.

Over 50 fundraisers took part at the previous sleepout in 2019, raising more than £28,000 for the participating charities. This year, the goal is to raise a minimum of £50,000.

Turf Sleepout is open to anyone and everyone over the age of 16 and a suggested sponsorship target of £100 - £250 upwards is encouraged. We are also welcoming groups to take part. Please note, participants must be over the age of 16 to participate.

All revenue raised will be split equally across the four charities and go towards vital causes.

Places are limited, so participants should register here Turf Sleepout 2022 Tickets, Fri 18 Nov 2022 at 19:00 | Eventbrite
