Thank you for choosing to race for Sussex Nightstop - a charity serving young people aged 16-25 who are homeless or at risk of homelessness. We provide safe, welcoming places to stay through our volunteer host network - people with a spare room to offer and a desire to help - which prevents rough sleeping and the dangers associated with it.
It’s a collaboration, which makes us firm believers in people power. So in advance of your event, let’s take inspiration from one another. We share three strengths that help us turn young lives around from crisis to calm, that will also make your event a success.
- Focus – you’ve chosen to take on a challenge because you’re motivated and determined about achieving your aims and goals. Our vision is a society where everyone has access to a secure and sustainable home and the opportunity to sleep safe every night. Your support helps us achieve that.
- Preparation – you’ll set your own training schedule and we’ve no doubt you’ll be ready to race. Likewise, we train our volunteer hosts to ensure they provide just what young need when they’re in crisis. Preparation breeds success, which is why so many of our guests don’t just go on to a place to call home…. the kindness shown by our hosts raises their sights and gives them the courage to believe they can achieve whatever they want. So let’s aim big together!
- Teamwork – you’ve set your challenge, now let’s inspire others – either to join you at the event or to sponsor you. Use our fundraising pack to achieve as much success as you can before the event and don’t forget to share pictures and/or video with us, so we can share your achievement with others. We’re proud of you already!
