This event requires participants to sleep outdoors on the ground, in the stand either by lying on the group or sitting on the seats. Sleep without bedding or shelter other than a sleeping bag, pillow, plastic or cardboard sheets (all sleeper bedding & plastic/cardboard must be provided by the participant).
Shelter Scotland exists to defend the right to a safe home. A safe home is a fundamental right and the foundation on which our lives are built. It opens the door to employment, health, education and is the basis of strong communities.
By taking part in this Sleep Out @ Fir Park you are joining the fight for home. You are pledging to raise a minimum of £100 in sponsorship. Your fundraising will support us to defend the right to a safe home and fight the devastating impact the housing emergency has on people and society.
