The Challenge
Keep your kit on for three days to raise awareness and funds for people doing it tough. By choosing not to change your clothes for three days, and talking about it with the people in your life, you will be helping to change the conversation around homelessness - and the lives of those in need.
How It Works

Meet Cass
For Cass, Orange Sky’s weekly shift isn’t just a chance to do laundry - it’s a moment to feel seen, heard and supported by a community that cares. Cass's journey has been marked by challenges.
Between the toll of health treatments and the rising costs of rent, she lost her home and spent the next year living out of her car. Eventually, she moved into a van, which has been her home ever since. Cass heard about Orange Sky from others who, like her, were living in their vehicles.
They introduced her to the local community centre, where Orange Sky’s bright orange van pulls up every Friday. For Cass, these shifts offer a simple yet profound comfort—clean clothes and a friendly chat. But it’s the sense of belonging that keeps her coming back.
“[Orange Sky] services have been absolutely invaluable. It just turns an ordinary day into something a little bit special. You get treated like part of the family.”
