Will you choose to give up your bed for one night to help raise awareness and funding for YMCA Norfolk?
YMCA Norfolk’s Sleep Easy is taking place on Friday 26 March from 7pm to 7am Saturday 27 March.
We are asking you to spend one night sleeping somewhere other than your bed, such as your garden, lounge, hallway or other safe space and to raise as much money as possible for our supported accommodation projects by encouraging your friends and family to sponsor you for taking part!
In previous years, our supporters have raised money for YMCA Norfolk services that help young people to rebuild their lives through Sleep Easy events. In ordinary times, this would have involved groups and individuals sharing the evening outside and together experiencing the harsh realities of life on the streets. Due to Covid-19 restrictions and for the safety of our participants, this year we will be hosting our Sleep Easy virtually!
This means we can still be connected online and over social media as we join in together remotely. We encourage participants to get involved and share your experience with us on the night – there will be prizes up for grabs for photos showing your unique and creative sleeping arrangements! (When posting, please specify if you would prefer us not to share through our own social media.)
If you would like to register and get a participant’s pack with more information, please contact our Events Officer Judy on judy.bailey@ymcanorfolk.org, or fill in the short form below.
Thank You on behalf of all the young and vulnerable people you will be helping us support by participating in this event!
