Join Devizes Opendoors for The Big Sleep Out 2023 and raise funds to help homeless and vulnerable adults here in Devizes get the support they need…..
You’ll experience a small taste of the difficulties homeless people have to deal with including freezing cold, vulnerability and the difficulty of carrying on your day with little sleep. And of course, you’ll be raising money for a great cause.
Here’s all the ways you can get involved:
Join The Big Sleep Out – Friday 13 October 7.30pm to 7.30am – Follow this registration link

Sleep out at St James’ Church in Devizes. There will be some hot food and drinks, and you’ll need to provide your own warm clothing and sleeping bags. All children under 18 must be accompanied by an adult. Raise money by asking friends and family to sponsor your Big Sleep Out.
Organise your own Big Sleep Out – Follow this registration link
Why not plan your own Big Sleep Out at work, at school or at home in the garden? They’ll give you a handy ‘how to’ guide and you can raise funds by asking everyone to sponsor your Big Sleep Out.
Pay to stay in bed – Follow this registration link
Want to support Devizes Opendoors but can’t sleep out? Don’t worry – you can donate to ‘stay in bed’ instead! Simply head to their website to make a donation.
Whatever you choose to do, every penny you raise will go to Devizes Opendoors services providing hot meals and showers, clothing, food and support for the most vulnerable adults in our community.
