Elland Road will be playing host to a special CEO Sleepout event as we stand united with local families and individuals facing hardship, homelessness, and genuine need.

Leeds United Chief executive officer Angus Kinnear will be just one of hopefully many business leaders to dust off their sleeping bag for the occasion, and Angus is calling for others to join him for what will be an unforgettable night sleeping under the stars at Elland Road.

The CEO Sleepout will take place on Thursday 19th October, from 8pm to 6.30am the following morning, and all you need to bring along with you is a sleeping bag for the night.

Angus Kinnear has spoken about the upcoming fundraising event and said: “CEO Sleepout will be a night like no other, bringing business leaders together who have all agreed to give up their home comforts and time, to spend a cold night outdoors. Together we hope to unlock understanding, compassion, and raise money for people in need.

“I’m sure it won’t be very comfortable, but we could be helping to change somebody’s life for the better which makes it all worthwhile.”

The club have teamed up with local charity Staying Put and all funds raised will be distributed to charities and causes on the frontline of homelessness and hunger across Yorkshire.
