UnityMK Big Sleepout 2026

At UnityMK, we’re inviting our community to take part in the Big Sleepout 2026, a powerful, eye-opening event raising vital funds and awareness for people facing and experiencing homelessness across Milton Keynes.

This year we mark 15 years of our night shelter service and are aiming to raise £8,000 – funds that could help provide a full winter season of meals for our night shelter guests.

Swap your comfortable bed for a powerful, thought-provoking experience, pending one night outdoors to support our work.

You’ll sleep in a concrete car park, whatever the weather, with just a few layers and a sleeping bag. While it’s only a brief glimpse into rough sleeping, it offers a meaningful insight into the realities many people face every day.

We’re grateful to our corporate partner, Cranswick Convenience Foods, for providing their secure car park – this is the fifth year they’ve supported our Big Sleepout. Sign up at https://www.unitymk.org/news/unitymk-big-sleepout-2026
