Julian House encourages locals to take part in this year’s Big Bath Sleep Out

Homeless charity Julian House is asking local residents, friends and companies to ditch the comfort of their bed and join hundreds of others in Alice Park in Bath in March, for just one night. 

Could you ‘Sleep Out’ for just one night if it meant you could help others who would be forced to sleep out every night?

No one is under any illusion that spending one night under the stars could possibly replicate what it is like to be homeless and on the streets.

After the Big Bath Sleep-Out you can go home, have a warm bath, have a nice breakfast and chat to family or friends about your experience, perhaps even go back to bed to catch up on the sleep you lost the night before.

By being sponsored to sleep out for just one night you will be helping others who don’t have the luxury of their own home to return to.

The 9th Big Bath Sleep-Out is open to individuals, members of the public, organisations, families, work teams.

Last year 230 people (including 40 primary school children, with their parents) raised an amazing £37,000 by sleeping out for just one night. You can help Julian House to raise as much, or even more, this year.

Further details and an online registration can be found at www.bigbathsleepout.co.uk or forms can be picked up from Alice Park Café or Julian House charity shops in Walcot St and Shaftesbury Road.

Pre-registration is essential. (Under 16’s to be accompanied by an adult and those between 16 and 18 need signed consent from a parent or carer).
