🚨 EVENT REMINDER 🚨 SLEEP OUT AT ST JAMES PARK ⚽ 🌙 There's still time to register your attendance for the Big Sleep Out, on Friday 14th March. For one night, participants will sleep outside to raise awareness of the challenges faced by those experiencing homelessness in our community.

Every ticket sold and pound raised through the Big Sleep Out aids our Supported Housing Service. Your contribution helps us to: - Provide safe, stable accommodation for vulnerable individuals - Offer personalised support services - Empower residents to take on their own tenancies, and achieve independence Sign-up here ⬇️ https://lnkd.in/eb-s32re Donate, and start fundraising 🙏 https://lnkd.in/em_fncD2

Exeter's leading health and wellbeing charity
About us
We are Exeter’s leading health & wellbeing charity working in partnership with Exeter City Football Club. We deliver inspiring physical activity, education, health and wellbeing programmes and courses primarily across Devon and Somerset for all members of the community regardless of ethnicity, age, gender, physical ability, background or economic status. A full-time staff of 30+ and a casual staff of 70+ (supported by around 25 volunteers) are delivering on the frontline daily spending around 22,000 hours out in the community every year striving to improve life chances for all, often in the most deprived areas of Greater Exeter and among the most disadvantaged groups in our society. While football is our beating heart, our work in the community has grown to extend far beyond. Our health, education, wellbeing and physical activity programmes reach over 45,000 members of our community each year and around 48% of those programmes are not football. The spread of our work is growing all the time. We want everyone to know you don’t have to play football, support football … or even like football … to benefit or participate. We are open and accessible to all, young and old, whoever you are, whatever your ability or background.
