A powerful display of community warmth and solidarity marked the return of The Telford Sleep Out 2026 on Friday, 9th October.
Held at Madeley Cricket Club for the second year running, the event brought together compassionate participants who spent the night sleeping under the stars to support local people facing or experiencing homelessness.
By sharing their fundraising campaigns, the participants sparked real conversations, shattered stigma, and showed vulnerable local people that they are seen and cared for. And following their night outside, many shared moving personal reflections, photos, and insights, successfully driving vital awareness for our cause.
The evening’s success was further bolstered by an array of generous local businesses, organisations, entertainers, and dedicated volunteers who donated their time and resources to the evening. The funds raised for The Telford Sleep Out go directly toward helping Stay and KiP continue our vital work providing safe housing and life-changing support to people facing crisis and homelessness right here in our community.
From all of us at Stay to everyone involved – thank you for your kindness, your commitment, and your huge hearts.
