Craven Cottage sleep out raises important funds to combat rough sleeping

The Fulham Foundation held a sleep out at Craven Cottage, in collaboration with homeless charity SPEAR, to raise money in aid of rough sleepers in the area.

Participants were given a taste of the struggles faced by rough sleepers during the winter months, and fundraised more than £13,000, a record for the event.

The event began with a stadium tour, taking attendees into the Chairman’s Lounge, dressing rooms and of course the famous cottage, as the guide discussed the heritage of the ground and history of the football club with eager Fulham fans.

Before clambering into the terraces for the sleep out, attendees gathered for a Q&A with former Fulham players, Les Strong and Barry Hayles, with the evening culminating in a talk from SPEAR CEO Tim Fallon.
