Click here ASDA SPONSORED SLEEPOUT 2019 What we do Working with an army of volunteers, we provide safe accommodation and a substantial meal for up to 35 guests each night during the coldest months of the year (December-March). Working in partnership with 7 churches in or near the city centre, we provide a welcoming venue, each opening their doors for one night each week. As guests bed down for the night in new, warm sleeping bags and blankets, night staff are there to offer support and prayer throughout the night. Before leaving at 8am the next morning, guests tuck into a healthy breakfast of cereals, toast and fresh fruit. Many are given ongoing support to address their needs.
