The Benjamin Foundation

15/10/2026

We wanted to say a huge thank you to these wonderful young girls who completed a 4 day sponsored hike of the North Norfolk Coastal Path in August to raise funds for The Benjamin Foundation.

They carried all their belongings and covered 100km in those 4 days!

We are so grateful for all their hard work and dedication supporting The Benjamin Foundation. 💜

Why does Sleep Out matter?

For a young person facing homelessness, finding a home is just the beginning.

By taking part in our Sleep Out, you will be helping young people across Norfolk and Suffolk overcome the barriers to finding a home, settling in and building the confidence and skills they need for a secure future.

Every £1 you help us raise helps take a young person one step further.

Visit our website for more information and to get your ticket.

There are so many ways to support our work and help keep our vital services available for those who need them most. 💜
