Sponsored Sleep Out 2019
Will you brave the cold to help the homeless?
Join hyh for the St Albans Sleepout – come and brave the cold and help a homeless person keep warm.
We help over 2,000 vulnerable people across the county each year who are homeless or at risk of becoming so. With your support and sponsorship, we can continue our vital work.
So wrap up warm, grab some friends and help raise money and awareness of homelessness with us!
