It is the first time we have run the event and we\u2019re excited to see some familiar and new faces here.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The event starts at 8pm Friday 22 March and ends at 7am the following morning.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" src=\"https:\/\/shefnews.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Night-Owls-Sleep-Over-FB-Event-Cover.jpg\" alt=\"Poster of the sleepover event\" class=\"wp-image-57471\" style=\"width:823px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shefnews.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Night-Owls-Sleep-Over-FB-Event-Cover.jpg 960w, https:\/\/shefnews.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Night-Owls-Sleep-Over-FB-Event-Cover-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 960px, 100vw\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Poster of the sleepover event<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>During the night participants will have the opportunity to have exclusive access to the stadium grounds and take part in fun activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The event costs \u00a320 per person and each person has a sponsorship aim of \u00a3100.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Roundabout told ShefNews the best way to raise money is for someone to explain their personal reasons for taking part and why they want to make a difference.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ms Bush said: \u201cWe also advise that they think creatively and don\u2019t rely just on sponsorship \u2013 holding bake sales or selling unwanted items and donating funds all helps towards their target.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A mystery celebrity guest will also be unveiled towards the end of the week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For any fundraising tips, contact <a href=\"mailto:fundraising@roundaboutltd.org\">fundraising@roundaboutltd.org<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To find out more about the Night Owls Sleep Over or to sign up visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.roundabouthomeless.org\/event\/night-owls-sleep-out\/\">the event page<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hillsborough stadium is hosting a sleepover to raise money for the homeless.
