🏟️🌙 The Stadium Sleepout is back! 🌙🏟️

On the night of Friday 2 October, join us at Portman Road, the home of Ipswich Town Football Club, for a night you won’t forget. 💙

Hosted by Ipswich Town Foundation in association with Emmaus Suffolk, the Stadium Sleepout will raise vital awareness of homelessness and essential funds to help make a direct impact in combatting homelessness across Suffolk. 💚🤝

Participants will spend the night sleeping inside the stadium bowl, in the lower Sir Alf Ramsey Stand. 💤🏟️

And it’s about much more than sleeping out! The evening will feature:
⚽ A tour of the stadium
💬 A panel discussion exploring homelessness in Suffolk
🤝 Activities designed to raise awareness and bring people together

Our CEO, Tony Chasteauneuf, explains why you should get involved! 👇
