# Event Details - **Event Name**: The Big Cambridge-Calais Sleepout 2026 - **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 07 Mar, 2026 at 06:00 pm – Sun, 08 Mar, 2026 at 09:00 am - **Event Description**: A sponsored sleepout, inside the church, outside in a tent, or outside 'rough', to support the homeless of Cambridge and Northern France.About this EventJoin us as a sleeper at our 'Fundraising For Refugees And The Homeless' event.No one should have to sleep rough in winter, but over the coming months dozens of homeless people in Cambridge and thousands of refugees in Northern France will face the bitter reality of trying to sleep in freezing cold, wet, and wretched conditions.The Cambridge Convoy Refugee Group (CamCRAG) in cooperation with the Cambridge City Foodbank are hosting the "Fundraising For Refugees And The Homeless" event at St Giles'Church, Castle Street, Cambridge over the weekend of 7th -8th March 2026. This event highlights the fact that these people all face the same problems, and that they share a common humanity, and that homelessness is not their fault.They may be in this situation because they have lost their job, have family problems, have suffered illness, or because they face imprisonment and torture in their home country. Our message is that it doesn’t matter - they deserve help without judgement, wherever and whoever they are.There will be a winter fair during Saturday afternoon with food and craft stalls, guest speakers, and entertainment, followed by a shared evening meal for the sleepers and guests, a sponsored sleepout, and a communal breakfast to celebrate an amazing night..All the money raised will go towards supporting CamCRAG's activities in Northern France, and towards supporting our charity partner.Here is a film of our first sleepout in 2018 - Big Cambridge-Calais Sleepout 2018 Filmhttps://youtu.be/LPfhVIGO1ZIAgenda?: 01:00 PM - 10:00 PMArrive at St Giles'and set up sleeping arrangements.?: 06:00 PM - 07:00 PMHelp prepare evening meal.?: 07:00 PM - 08:00 PMShare evening meal.?: 10:00 PM - 06:00 AMThe Sleepout.?: 06:00 AM - 07:00 AMHelp prepare breakfast.?: 07:00 AM - 08:00 AMShare breakfast.?: 08:00 AM - 09:00 AMBreak camp, help tidy up the church. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/cambridge/the-big-cambridge-calais-sleepout-2026/100001837902408579 - **Event Categories**: charities, entertainment, nonprofit - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Cambridge - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: St Giles' Church - **lat**: 52.21121219999999 - **long**: 0.11490900000001147 - **full address**: St Giles' Church, Castle Street, Cambridge, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: The Big Cambridge-Calais Sleepout 2026 - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/8394da666264eb099b902749bba0d2156036084675d314ee9c8cf5bec6b75fb3-rimg-w1200-h1600-dc1a1715-gmir.jpg?v=1761954918 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is The Big Cambridge-Calais Sleepout 2026 being held? - **A:** The Big Cambridge-Calais Sleepout 2026 takes place on Sat, 07 Mar, 2026 at 06:00 pm to Sun, 08 Mar, 2026 at 09:00 am at St Giles' Church, Castle Street, Cambridge, United Kingdom. - **Q**: Who is organizing The Big Cambridge-Calais Sleepout 2026? - **A:** The Big Cambridge-Calais Sleepout 2026 is organized by Cambridge Convoy Refugee Action Group (CamCRAG). ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "The Big Cambridge-Calais Sleepout 2026", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/8394da666264eb099b902749bba0d2156036084675d314ee9c8cf5bec6b75fb3-rimg-w1200-h1600-dc1a1715-gmir.jpg?v=1761954918", "startDate": "2026-03-07", "endDate": "2026-03-08", "url": "https://allevents.in/cambridge/the-big-cambridge-calais-sleepout-2026/100001837902408579", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "St Giles' Church", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "Castle Street", "postalCode": "CB3 0AQ", "addressLocality": "Cambridge", "addressRegion": "EN", "addressCountry": "GB" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "52.21121219999999", "longitude": "0.11490900000001147" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "A sponsored sleepout, inside the church, outside in a tent, or outside 'rough', to support the homeless of Cambridge and Northern France.", "offers": [ { "@type": "AggregateOffer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-20", "availabilityEnds": "2026-03-08", "validFrom": "2026-04-20", "lowPrice": "0.00", "highPrice": "0.00", "price": "0.00", "url": "https://allevents.in/cambridge/the-big-cambridge-calais-sleepout-2026/100001837902408579" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-20", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-04-20", "url": "https://allevents.in/cambridge/the-big-cambridge-calais-sleepout-2026/100001837902408579", "price": 0, "name": "Sleeper" } ], "organizer": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Cambridge Convoy Refugee Action Group (CamCRAG)", "url": "https://allevents.in/org/cambridge-convoy-refugee-action-group-camcrag/23447402", "description": "We are a group of volunteers who live in and around Cambridge who work to help the refugees in Northern France and elsewhere in Europe.
