Swans Big Sleep Out 2025

Following the success of the past two years, the ‘Swans Big Sleep Out’ is back. On Friday 14th November 2025, Matthew’s House and Swansea City AFC Foundation will partner up to raise awareness of homelessness, isolation and deprivation.

Sleeping out for one night is no comparison to the realities of homelessness, but it does give a better understanding of what some people are dealing with everyday.

The Foundation is inviting individuals and businesses to sign up to spend the night at the Swansea.com Stadium and raise crucial funds for Matthew’s House and Swansea City AFC Foundation, with both charities working to tackle homelessness head on. This year we hope to have 100 sleepers taking part with the aim of raising £40,000.

“This event isn’t just about one night, it’s about standing together to say we care. The Swans Big Sleep Out helps us keep doing what we do at Matthew’s House: providing support, food, and hope to people who need it most. Doing that alongside the club and Foundation, in the middle of our city, shows the kind of community we are – one that turns up when it counts,” said Thom Lynch, Matthew’s House project leader.

Swans Foundation have been selected to represent Wales at the Street Child United World Cup in 2026, an event which brings together street-connected children from across the world.

“This will be a once in a lifetime experience for 10 street-connected young people from local communities across Swansea, many of whom have never left the county, let alone represented their country overseas. Funds raised from the Sleep Out will help us to shine a spotlight on children living in street situations, the adversities they face and the fundamental rights they lack. ”
