Since its beginnings in 2010, YMCA Sleep Easy has seen over 7,000 people sleep rough in order to raise over £1.5 million for local YMCA services that assist young people in rebuilding their lives.
YMCAs are encouraging supporters to make a lifetime of difference by participating in national YMCA Sleep Easy events taking place across England and Wales.
Participants from YMCAs across England and Wales will spend one night sleeping somewhere other than their bed to raise crucial funds to help address the root causes of youth homelessness.

We saw participants across England and Wales grab a sleeping bag, build cardboard forts and go somewhere other than their bed to sleep, such as their garden, living room, hallway, or another safe location.
The challenge event asks you to spend one night sleeping somewhere other than your bed in order to raise critical funds to assist us in addressing the root causes of youth homelessness.

YMCA is the largest provider of safe, supported accommodation for young people in England and Wales.
We provide safe, affordable places to live that feel like home and focus on community spirit and togetherness. Our approach to support is based on strengths, and our residents are always at the centre of their own support plans.
The support they receive reflects their aspirations to accessing education, training, employment and volunteering, their future housing needs and addresses any physical and mental wellbeing needs. Our aim is to empower residents to gain the tools and skills that enable stability, independent living, promising futures, and connection to their communities.
