Channel Rotary Sleepout
November 8 @ 8:00 am - 5:00 pm
On the 8th November 2024 Channel Rotary is holding a second Sleep Out at Three Hills
Sports Centre in Folkestone. This will be broadcast on social media and will be a fun evening
with various activities. The aim of the evening is to raise funds to support Folkestone’s
homeless through a new initiative which will help them to rebuild their lives through mentors
in a permanent home the funds raised on the evening will also support Rotary’s work with
disadvantaged young people.
We are looking for a small gathering of people in our District who represent businesses and
organisations and through their network will seek sponsorship from their friends, customers
and contacts. Our last sleep-out raised over £26,000!
There will be limited spaces at the event, so if you’d like to take part please sign up early!
We’d also love you to take part from the safety of your own home and garden if you can. Just
let us know what you’re doing, download the sponsorship form, orset up a Just Giving
sponsorship page and that’s it! Be sure to share pictures or videos of your own sleep out via
social media, and raise as much as you can. We hope to be able to link with you from the Three Hills
