Why am I doing the Winter Sleep out?
Last year I participated in the Winter Sleep out and even though the weather was cold and harsh in the morning and in the night, I realised that I’m only sleeping in a box for one night while people who are less fortunate sleep in a box every night.Cornish College Winter Sleepout 2026
Once again Cornish College students from years 6 to 12 will come together on Friday June 5th to sleep out in the cold to raise money for the amazing charity Backpack Bed for Homeless.
They are a national charity that provides Backpack Beds to street sleeping homeless people.
The Backpack Bed is a portable emergency bed that is waterproof and fire retardant. It keeps people warm safe and dry during times of extreme hardship.
All donations from our community are greatly appreciated!
