The countdown is on!
Today, we officially launched the 2026 Hills Winter Sleep Out, proudly hosted by Castle Towers.
A huge thank you to our major sponsors β Beyond Bank, Landen, Ironborn and Castle Towers β for their incredible support in helping us raise awareness of homelessness and housing insecurity in our community.
We were excited to unveil the new electronic signage throughout Castle Towers, helping spread the message and encouraging our community to get involved in this yearβs Sleep Out.
Every night, too many people in our community face the reality of homelessness. By taking part in the Hills Winter Sleep Out, you can help make a difference and support the vital services that assist people experiencing hardship.
Together, we can end homelessness.
Thank you to everyone who joined us for the launch and to our sponsors, supporters and participants who are standing with us to create positive change.
Register today and help us make this our biggest Sleep Out yet. https://sleep-out-2026.raiselysite.com/
