The Big Exeter Sleep Out 2026

You’ll make St James Park your home for the night, sleeping out in the cold while raising vital funds for Exeter City Community Trust’s Supported Housing Service, and awareness of the struggles faced by those experiencing homelessness and rough sleeping regularly. Before settling in for the night, hot drinks and snacks will be provided to help keep you warm. In the morning, you’ll receive free breakfast and hot drinks, with bacon or sausage baps available, as well as vegetarian options.

Our service provides safe, temporary accommodation and tailored support for individuals experiencing homelessness. The service focuses on helping residents develop life skills and build confidence to transition into independent living. By offering a compassionate, person-centred approach, we aim to empower individuals to overcome barriers and achieve long-term stability and self-sufficiency in Exeter.

It costs just £15 to secure your place, and we’re challenging participants to raise £100 or more to make a meaningful impact on our Supported Housing Service’s work.
